Pancakes To Go - Healthy Version
We call these to go because theyre sweet and go well as a snack in the car or the playground. I love these pancakes for several reasons - they taste great, theyre sugarless sweetened with maple syrup and hazelnut milk, contain whole spelt flour and banana, and did I mention theyre yummy?

Step-by-step
- Mix all ingredients in Blender
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. Pour the batter and flip when bubbles appear.
Many cooks over-blend pancake batters made with whole grain flours, which activates excess gluten and creates a rubbery texture. Spelt flour requires gentle handling to maintain a tender crumb, even when combined in a blender. Keep the pulse duration under 15 seconds to incorporate the ingredients without overworking the proteins. The batter should remain slightly textured rather than completely smooth.
Mastering the Griddle and Scaling
Heat your griddle to 375 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal browning without burning the exterior before the center sets. Watch for bubbles to form across the surface and edges to look matte before flipping, which usually takes about two to three minutes on the first side. When doubling or tripling this recipe for larger batches, measure the flour by weight rather than volume to maintain the correct 3/4-cup liquid to 1-cup flour hydration ratio. Whisk wet ingredients separately if scaling past a single blender capacity to prevent motor strain.
- Batter too thick: Thin the mixture by whisking in additional hazelnut milk one tablespoon at a time.
- Pancakes burning too fast: Lower the griddle heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Uneven cooking: Ensure the vegetable oil is wiped into a thin, even film rather than pooling on the griddle surface.
