Lemon Poppyseed Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce
Poppy seeds add crunch to these fluffy pancakes paired with a sweet-tart blueberry sauce. What’s the secret to tender pancakes? Don’t overmix your batter! Mixing builds structure, but overmixing will yield a tough pancake. If your batter is lumpy, let it hang out for 5 minutes before cooking. This will give the flour some time to absorb the liquid, ensuring the pancakes turn out just right. Read More
Apple Ricotta Pancakes
These healthy apple pancakes puff to perfection thanks to the right combination of ingredients, including a mixture of double-acting baking powder and baking soda (using both ensures the batter will spread out evenly and rise well).

Walnut oil is full of healthy fats and has a rich, nutty flavor, and white whole-wheat flour packs in more fiber than all-purpose flour. A bit of buttermilk adds a nice tang to these flapjacks. All in all, it adds up to a healthy breakfast that's sure to impress. Read More

Fluffy Pancakes
These fluffy pancakes get their rise from the magical combination of buttermilk, baking powder and baking soda. As the batter rests, baking powder reacts with the liquid ingredients to form bubbles that create fluffy pancakes, while the gluten in the flour relaxes to make them more tender. Baking soda provides extra lift, using the acid from the buttermilk to create a similar effect. Once the batter hits the heat, they rise one last time, resulting in perfectly tender pancakes that you can slather with your favorite toppings. Read More
