Instructions 

  • In a blender, combine the spinach, buttermilk, egg, and oil and blend until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Heat a large pan or griddle over medium heat and grease with butter or oil. Pour about 1 tablespoon of the pancake mixture onto the griddle, making as many pancakes as will fit and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook for one minute longer.
  • Serve warm with favorite toppings.

Notes

  • To Store: Store leftover spinach pancakes in an airtight container or resealable bag in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To Freeze: Place cooled pancakes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To Reheat: To reheat, simply warm the frozen pancakes in the toaster, microwave, or oven until heated through.
  • Make Spinach Waffles using the same batter! Just follow the waffle iron manufacturer’s directions for cook time.
