We all agree that a healthy breakfast is recommended for long days of hard work. Working from home not only gives us the opportunity to create scrumptious and delicious meals but also recipes that we enjoy.

How about a healthy dose of carbs
Pancakes usually will satisfy our carb cravings unless we make homemade biscuits. Fluffy homemade pancakes are always the ultimate comfort breakfast food. If you have tried my Tapioca Flour Pancakes, these Fluffy Spelt Packages will also knock your socks off.
Spelt flour has a nutty flavor, is a good source of dietary fiber, protein, and vitamins and minerals. Flour substitution is quite easy with this type of flour. The worry is moisture. You might need to increase the amount of butter or oil depending on the recipe.
Carbs are good and bad for us. We must try to consume healthy carbs as much as we can. The only way to make sure that we consume healthy doses of carbs is by making homemade pancakes. They are better than store-bought and do not take long to make.
Making Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes
Adding buttermilk to the spelt flour to make pancakes is the best way to go in my opinion. Buttermilk Spelt Pancakes contain the fat from the buttermilk and additional fat from the melted butter. The recipe does contain melted and choosing a good brand makes a lot of difference.
The recipe came from Bob’s Red Mills Spelt Flour packaging. The recipe is very easy to follow. The only problem I had with it is that it did not mention greasing the griddle or pan before adding the pancaked mixture. A person who is not used to make pancakes may not know to add either a little butter or use spray butter.
I think fluffy homemade pancakes need buttermilk. Buttermilk not only helps with moisture but it also helps the flour stay light.

Tips and Notes for this Spelt Flour Buttermilk Pancakes
- No need to use a griddle. You can also use a skillet or frying pan.
- Use Pam spray or your favorite butter spray and spray the pan before adding the batter. This will avoid sticking.
- Use a flat spatula with an angled handle to flip the pancakes.
- Maple syrup, honey, and even soft butter are great with pancakes.
- Fresh fruits like berries are more common. You can also use oranges, mandarin or tangerine, apples, and pineapple
- Ginder, nutmeg, and cinnamon will add more flavor to the batter. I prefer adding ginger powder.
