Ingredients
For the Pancakes
2
large
eggs
2
cups
unbleached all-purpose flour
I used whole-wheat pastry flour, so mine did not rise
2
tablespoons
sugar
2
teaspoons
baking powder
1
teaspoon
baking soda
1
teaspoon
salt
2.5
cups
buttermilk
I used coconut milk + 1 tablespoon of vinegar
4
tablespoons
unsalted butter
melted
1
tablespoon
matcha tea powder
For the Syrup
2
cups
pomegranate acai juice
I used Naked Juice, no-sugar added
0.5
cup
pure maple syrup
2
tablespoons
tapioca flour
1
tablespoon
water
Instructions
To make the syrup:
Pour the juice and maple syrup into a small sauce pan.
Mix the tapioca flour with the water to dissolve, then add to the saucepan.
Heat over medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool until ready to use.
To make the pancakes:
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a mixer until frothy.
Sift in the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
Stir in the buttermilk, melted butter and matcha powder just until combined and no lumps remain.
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the griddle.
Pour about 1/3 cup of batter on the griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the top, about 2 minutes.
Flip pancake and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 more minutes.
Remove from heat and keep warm until all pancakes are cooked.
Serve with syrup.
Notes
If you would like fluffy pancakes, use un-bleached, all-purpose flour.
