This pancake recipe uses a secret ingredient for getting fluffy and light pancakes! Add in some fresh berries and some light maple syrup for a great breakfast.
I have another 1 point pancake recipe for you that uses whipped egg whites to make really fluffy pancakes! It’s a good substitute for those that don’t want to use Greek yogurt or buttermilk. The pancakes even taste like those rich decadent pancakes you get at your local breakfast food place or diner.Â
Ingredients Needed
- Mixed berries, fresh or frozen and thawedÂ
- Lemon juice - This adds a nice burst of citrus flavor to the marinade to help enhance the choice of protein. Use freshly squeezed over bottled juice.Â
- Self-rising flour - is a type of flour that already contains baking powder and salt, which are essential ingredients in many baked goods.
- Table salt
- Milk - Dairy does not like me at all so I go for a lactose free milk such as Fairlife. It also has more protein in it.
- Egg, separated - The best type of eggs you can buy at the store are organic or free-range eggs, while others may prefer eggs from specific breeds of chickens
- Egg whites - these get beaten with a stand mixer or hand held mixer!
- Vanilla extract - It is made by macerating and soaking vanilla beans in a mixture of water and Vodka. Use a good pure vanilla instead of the imitation vanilla extract.
- See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.
How to make whipped egg whitesÂ
You can make whipped egg whites using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer with a wire whisk attachment. I prefer using the stand mixer for this because the machine does the work for you. You can tell when the egg whites are ready when you take the beater off the stand mixer and the egg whites don’t fold over.
I always have large eggs on hand in my kitchen and never the egg whites that come in a container aka Egg Beaters. Always use fresh eggs. Egg beaters usually contain added preservatives like xanthan gum or guar gum.
How to make Triple Berry Pancakes
In a medium bowl, gently toss berries with lemon juice; set aside.
In another medium bowl, sift together flour; then add salt, milk, egg, and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
In a medium mixing bowl, using an electric mixer or stand mixer with a wire whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; gently fold into batter until combined.
Stir in berries and set aside.
Heat a very large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Spray the skillet with nonstick cooking spray and drop 2 heaping tablespoons of batter into skillet for each pancake (make sure to leave enough space in between each). Cook until bottoms are golden, about 2 minutes; flip and cook until centers are set, about 2 minutes more.
