Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup millet flour
  • 1/4 cup almond flour optional, for added texture
  • 1 tablespoon sugar or honey
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk or dairy-free alternative
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions
 

Prepare the wet ingredients

  1. In a small bowl, mix the milk and apple cider vinegar and let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a buttermilk substitute.

Combine the dry ingredients

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together millet flour, almond flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Mix the batter

  1. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the buttermilk mixture, then pour it into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; avoid overmixing.

Heat the skillet

  1. Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.

Cook the pancakes

  1. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
