Ingredients
¾ cup milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 large egg, beaten
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 cup spelt flour
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions
Combine milk and lemon juice in a large bowl and let stand until curdled, about 5 minutes. Stir in beaten egg and melted butter until combined. Set aside.
Combine spelt flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir gently into milk mixture until just combined; batter will be lumpy.
Heat a lightly greased griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the hot griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
Recipe Tips
You can use vinegar instead of lemon juice to sour the milk, or you can use 3/4 cup of buttermilk instead of milk and lemon juice (or vinegar).
You can substitute olive oil for the melted butter.
