Favorite Fresh-milled Khorasan (Kamut) Pancakes
Kamut Pancakes have a rich, buttery flavor! When freshly milled, the light yellow color and flavor make it so close to the Jemima pancake flavors! Khorasan grain is higher in protein and rich in fiber, making this a nutritious and highly requested breakfast!
Ingredients
- 1 cup plus 3 Tbsp of freshly milled Khorasan flour, (Mill 1 cup of Khorasan wheat berries through a grain mill, then measure out).
- 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp honey or Sucanat
- 1 egg
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- coconut oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, make the pancake batter by whisking the Khorasan flour, 1 1/4 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Stir in 2 Tbsp honey, 1 egg, 1 cup milk, and 2 Tbsp oil. The batter will be runny, but shouldn't be too wet where it drips.
- Add a dab of coconut oil to the pan and melt. Pour 1/2 cup of batter into the preheated pan (I like mega, buttery, super large pancakes).
- Cook until bubbles form on top (about 1-2 minutes). Then check underneath to see if it's nice and golden. Then flip and finish cooking for 1-2 minutes longer.
- Stack the pancakes on a large plate and serve with butter and maple syrup or whatever toppings you like (blueberries, pecans, walnuts, etc)...
Notes
- Any leftover Khorasan flour stores well in the fridge. Freshly milled flour tends to go rancid more quickly and, therefore, is recommended to be stored in the fridge.
- These pancakes have been tested in small and larger sizes. We found that the pancakes are fluffier and chewier when cooked larger.
- Khorasan wheat makes the best buttery, golden pancakes! They naturally have a buttery flavor and are my top choice for making pancakes!
- Soft white wheat pancakes tend to oxidize quicker making this Ancient grain more superier.
- Khorasan grain has higher protein than wheat, making this a rich breakfast option (that's higher in protein and fiber)!
