Love brown butter anything, like we do? Learn how to brown butter, make our brown butter chocolate chip cookies or brown butter banana bread, or try our brown butter sage sauce. This recipe is a collaboration to celebrate BUTTER, a fine art fair that features artwork made by Black visual artists from Indiana and across the country. It’s one of our favorite events in the city! So we made a custom recipe starring, of course, butter in all its best forms. Learn more about BUTTER below* and buy tickets here.
Unsalted butter: The level of saltiness in salted butter varies. So using unsalted butter allows the salt content to be controlled by the amount specified in the recipe. You can also use salted butter here if it’s all you have; just use slightly salt than specified in the pancakes (¼ teaspoon). All purpose flour and whole wheat flour: We like adding a little whole wheat flour to pancakes to make them heartier and add a slightly nutty flavor. You can use 100% all purpose flour if desired. Milk: Use your milk of choice, either whole, 2%, skim, or non-dairy milk. Brown sugar: Use granulated sugar if desired. Egg: For vegan, substitute a flax egg. Baking powder, salt, vanilla, and apple cider vinegar: These ingredients round out the pancakes. The vinegar helps the pancakes to be fluffy: substitute any other type of vinegar if you don’t have it on hand.
Find pure maple syrup. You’ll want pure maple syrup, not artificially flavored. We like syrup marked “Grade A: Dark Color Robust Taste.” Use heavy cream to add thickness. The cream adds thickness and shine to the syrup. For vegan, use full ft coconut milk. Customize the salt to taste. We like it with ¼ teaspoon salt, but you can use more or less as desired.
Anchored in Indianapolis over Labor Day weekend, BUTTER honors and amplifies the value and worth of Black artists, serving as a new model for economic justice in the arts and a catalyst for career transformation. Buy tickets here. 5 from 1 review
