Beet Pancakes

February 11, 2021 by whiteblankspace Leave a Comment

It took me several batches to make this beet pancake recipe work, but in the end, they turned out nicely pink, fluffy, with a good flavor. Would you try this for Valentine’s day?

Beet Pancake

(Makes about 17 small pancakes)
Author whiteblankspace

Ingredients

  • 1 small oven-roasted beet
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey or coconut sugar
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups milk I used whole milk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Blend beet, yogurt, eggs, honey, butter, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and milk in a high-speed blender until smooth.
  2. In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
  3. Pour the wet mix into the dry mix. Stir until just combined. Try not to overmix.
  4. Coat a non-stick pan with butter or oil. Cook pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, pancakes will burn, and the color won’t be nicely pink. Alternatively, use a waffle maker with pancake plates. These came out the best.

Recipe Notes

For bright pink color, use over-roasted beets. Precooked storebought beets are not as saturated.
I tried cooking them in a cast-iron skillet, non-stick pan, and waffle maker with pancake plates. The waffle maker made the fluffiest pancakes with uniform color. I don’t recommend cast-iron skillet since it quickly burned the pancakes.
