Maple Bacon Pancake Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup of flaxseed meal
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup of non-fat buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup
  • 8 strips center-cut bacon

Directions

In a non-stick pan on medium-high heat, fry bacon strips until crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
Either set aside pan to use for frying pancakes, or pour out the extra grease, depending on preference.
Place bacon on paper towel to soak up any extra grease. Dice into small pieces, set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, maple syrup, and melted butter.
Add flours, flax seed meal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients and mix until mostly smooth, leaving some small lumps. Do not overmix.
Pour 3/4 of the bacon pieces into batter and mix until combined. Set aside the rest to top pancakes when serving.
Heat pan used to cook bacon on medium. Using a spoon or ladle, pour two tablespoons of batter into the pan.
Cook until small bubbles form then flip using a spatula. Cook for about another minute.
Once cooked, place on plate, top with bacon pieces, and drizzle with maple syrup.
