1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.


2. In a large bowl, combine the butter milk, egg, oil, and maple syrup. Add to the flour, baking soda, and salt.


3. In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, oil, and maple syrup. Add to the flour mixture and stir just until blended.


4. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and warm over medium heat. Pour the batter by scant 1/4 cupfuls into the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, or until tiny bubbles appear on the surface and edges begin to look dry. Flip and cook for 2 minutes, or until golden. Place the flapjacks on the prepared baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.


5. Coat the skillet with cooking spray. Repeat with the remaining batter to make a total of 18 flapjacks.
   Serve the flapjacks with berries.

**Tip** For cooking purposes, it is fairly easy to create a homemade buttermilk substitute. This will be cut down on your caloric intake and reduce saturated fat in your recipes. For every 1 cup of regular milk add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice or white vinegar, mix and let sit in room temperature for 20 minutes. One can also add 1/4 cup plain yogurt to 3/4 cup milk, mix and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
