Directions
- If using butter or coconut oil, melt on stove top or in the microwave.
- Begin pre heating a non-stick pan or skillet to medium low heat
- In a large mixing bowl, combine both flours, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together: milks
- oil, butter, or coconut oil
- and an egg.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir with a rubber spatula until fully combined.
- Apply a thin layer of oil or butter to the pre heated non-stick pan or skillet.
- Use a ladle or “pour-friendly” container to pour the batter on to the skillet.
- Cook for about four minutes on one side (the edges will start setting
- bubbles will form in the middle and eventually start popping).
- Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional two minutes.
- Eat immediately, or keep warm in a 200 degree oven.

Hi Jeanne & Joyce – thanks for the feedback! We’ll work on adding a print button in the future, but we have worked on page formatting – if you go to the File menu and select print, it should give you a white background version without pictures. I hope that works as a starting place!
Jeanne
I agree with a previous message. I really enjoy seeing and making these kernza recipes. Having print options also makes it easy for me to save them on my computer. Thanks for your wonderful information!

The only thing that could be awesome-er than these recipes would be having a “Print This” button where just the recipe on plain white background would be available to print out to put in my recipe book or box. Kernza is the BEST!

The same recipes work for waffles too!! As a taste bonus, we add a little vanilla and cinnamon in the mixes and leave out the sugar…yummy.
