How to keep Einkorn flour pancakes warm

If you are serving einkorn pancakes for a crowd, keeping them warm until ready to serve is actually quite easy. Line them up on a single layer cooling rack and place them into a 200-degree Fahrenheit oven until ready to serve. The cooling rack will prevent the einkorn pancakes from getting soggy and the lower temperature will keep them warm without drying them out. Warming with this method is ideal for 30 minutes.

How to store Einkorn Pancakes

Refrigerator- Einkorn pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 days in an airtight container or Ziplock bag. Reheat on stove top or microwave, add desired toppings. 

Freezer- My personal preference for storing is in the freezer in a Ziploc bag. Use a piece of parchment paper and line them in between each pancake so they do not stick to each other. Pull them out and allow to defrost on the counter and reheat on stove top or microwave when ready to eat.

    The recipe is excellent, the first time I made them I followed the recipe to a ‘T’, the pancakes came out very thin. This time, I used less buttermilk and they were perfect. Great tasting both times though.

    1. Thank you for the feedback, I’m glad you enjoyed them! I’m not surprised about the difference in thickness with the liquid. Measuring devices surprisingly are not all equal in measurements which is crazy right?! I learned this with my own liquid measuring cups, one glass and one plastic. The weight when measured precisely to the line is different and by almost 1/4 cup, which has led me to start weighing my ingredients in grams as well as measuring cups to help be more precise with my recipes moving forward. I’m so glad they were still tasty though!
