Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

03

Step

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

04

Step

Gently fold in the wheat germ until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (Prep time: 1 minute)

05

Step

Heat a lightly buttered griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

06

Step

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each hotcake. (Cook time: 2-3 minutes per side)

07

Step

Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the hotcakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

08

Step

Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

For extra fluffy hotcakes, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
Feel free to add other ingredients to the batter, such as blueberries, chocolate chips, or mashed bananas.
To keep the hotcakes warm while you cook the remaining batter, place them on a wire rack in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C).
