Ingredients
 

  • ¾ cup whole-wheat flour
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 whole egg or 2 large egg whites
  • 1¾ cups low-fat buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until combined.
  • In a medium bowl, lightly beat the egg whites. Add the buttermilk, oil, and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir together gently until just combined, taking care not to overmix. If time allows, let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
  • Liberally coat a large skillet or griddle with oil spray. Preheat it over medium heat. When the pan is nice and hot (after about 2 minutes), ladle about ¼ cup batter per pancake onto the surface.
  • The batter will be thick, so it may help to spread it out with the back of a spoon.
  • Cook the pancakes until they are golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Recoat the pan with oil spray between batches to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
