Blue Masa Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1.5 cup blue masa harina
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 2.5 cup buttermilk
• 2 eggs (Medium eggs)
• 0.333 cup melted butter or olive oil (Use either melted butter or olive oil.)
• 0.25 cup honey
• 1 tsp clarified butter (For heating the pan; use additional clarified butter as needed for successive batches if necessary.)

Steps

1. 1

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the blue masa harina, baking powder, and salt to remove any lumps.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter or olive oil, and honey until smooth.

3. 3

   Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined, with no dry spots. The batter will seem thin at first; let it sit for a few minutes so it can thicken.

4. 4

   Heat 1 teaspoon of clarified butter in a pan over medium-high heat.

5. 5

   Add about 1/4 cup of batter to the pan for each pancake and spread the batter out evenly.

6. 6

   Cook the pancakes until their edges are crispy and browned, about 2 minutes.

7. 7

   Flip each pancake and cook the other side until done.

8. 8

   Serve and enjoy the pancakes.

Notes

The source does not specify the cooking time for the second side or the total yield. Cook successive batches in clarified butter as needed; the source specifies 1 teaspoon for heating the pan.
