Do you know about Spelt Flour?
Spelt is a type of wheat. To make whole grain spelt flour, the entire spelt grain is processed, including the bran, endosperm and germ. It has a nutty, slightly tangy flavor, a coarse texture and has visible brown flecks mixed in with the white.
This article from bon appetit magazine, suggests how to bake with spelt flour. It says we can use spelt flour as a direct 1:1 substitute for all-purpose flour in cakes, muffins, and cookies. As well as fruit desserts like crumbles and crisps. In breads, however, you’ll have to play around, balancing it with all-purpose, to get the right rise and texture.
I have tried quiet a few bakes with spelt flour, my favorite is this Spelt flour bread. I baked a loaf this week too, both my kids enjoy it with just butter.
We love this veggies loaded calzone recipe, which has a mix of spelt, whole wheat and all purpose flour. If you are a dessert person you should check this strawberry spelt flour bundt cake or Fruity cinnamon rolls.
Apple Pancake with Spelt Flour
Today's apple pancake recipe is a decade old recipe. I have made a few changes to this old recipe with organic whole grain spelt flour, more fresh fruit, milk and flavors.
These pancakes were a hit with both my kids and my husband was pleasantly surprised, when I served this like a dessert for his late night sweet tooth with a drizzle of honey.
You have loads of options to make this simple spelt flour pancake exciting for your kids. I added few chocolate chips while it was cooking, served some with a delish apple compote and crushed walnuts.
I packed some for my elder one's snack box with a drizzle of honey. He really loved it and has approved it for the lunchbox menu. Nothing makes a momma more happy when kids love homemade, wholegrain food and come back for seconds.
These spelt flour apple pancakes are mildly sweet with fresh apples, flavored with cinnamon and ginger. They make a healthy, portion controlled dessert for your late night cravings. Just serve it with a drizzle of honey and crushed nuts.

Apple Pancake | Spelt Flour Apple Pancake | Eggless
Equipment
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Whisk and spatula
- Bowls for mixing the batter
Ingredients
- 1 cup wholegrain organic spelt flour all purpose and whole wheat flour can be used
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 no apple cored, peeled and shredded i used pink lady apple
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- ½ teaspoon ginger powder
- butter for making the pancakes
Garnishes
- Crushed walnuts
- chocolate chips
- honey
Instructions
- Wash, peel and core apple. In a wide bowl, shred the apple.
- To this bowl, add spelt flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon powder and dry ginger powder.
- Using a spatula, mix the dry ingredients well. To this now add milk and mix it to a pancake batter
- The apple pancake batter will be a thick pourable batter. If you feel it is too thick, add ¼ cup of water to this and mix well.
- Set this aside for 10 minutes for the flavors to mingle well.
Let us make the Pancake
- Heat a pan. I have used my cast iron pancake pan. Make sure the heat is medium. Too hot pan, will burn and make the pancakes stick to it and too low heat will not cook the pancake properly.
- To know whether the pan is at correct heat, sprinkle water, it should sizzle and not smoke. If smoke, take it off heat, let it cool down a bit and heat again.
- When the pan is hot, pour a ladle of batter into each of holes. Add butter on top, cover and cook for a minute in medium flame.
- I added chocolate chips for a batch of pancakes. You can also add some apple compote or raisins to your pancakes.
- Remove cover, flip and cook again for a minute in medium flame. Remove and serve it warm with honey and crushed walnuts.
Notes
- I got around 12 pancakes for the above batter. You can get around 10-15, depending on the size of it.
- These pancakes make a great meal for school lunch boxes. I packed with a drizzle of honey and few walnut pieces.
- They refrigerate well for 2-3 days, that's how long I tried refrigerating them. While serving from the fridge, i reheated them for 20 seconds and served with honey and walnuts.
- The honey on top really oomph ups the flavor of these soft and fluffy pancakes, so i highly recommend not to miss it.
