It's been awhile since I updated on here again, but I have good excuses. Moving to Texas is the main one.
But seriously, I have a back stock of things I have been meaning to post so hopefully I can get back into it again. For today I want to share with you a variation on one of my mom's recipes. These are definitely one of my favorite breakfast foods when I am in the mood to exert the effort to make them!
Whole Wheat Honey Pancakes
Ingredients:
(this is for a single batch, I generally double the recipe)
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1 Tbsp honey (can add more to taste)
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 cup milk (can add more or less depending on how thick you like yours)
2 tsp oil (or melted butter)
Toppings of choice!
Instructions:
Combine dry ingredients first, then add the wet ingredients. Stir just to mix.
Let sit a few minutes for the baking powder to rise (thus making fluffier pancakes)
Turn your griddle onto high (or your stove/pan). Pour mixture onto surface once hot. Size doesn't matter, but since the dough tends to be thick, watch out because they can get really dense if you made too big!
Cook evenly on both sides then remove from heat and enjoy!
I highly recommend topping these with real maple syrup or natural honey. They're even better with bananas and raisins :)
Alterations:
If you wish, you can change your flour amounts around. I like to do 1/2 cup wheat, 1/4 cup white, and 1/4 cup oatmeal. You can also do 3/4 wheat and 1/4 white, or try other flours also!
They taste really good with mix-ins, like raisins! I bet they'd be amazing with chocolate chips also.
Experiment and have fun. No matter how you like your pancakes, I am sure they'll be delicious!
Nutritional Info:
(per serving. One serving - approx 2 large pancakes)
445 calories
19g fat
865 mg sodium
56 g carbs
15 g sugar (Before syrup/toppings)
15 g protein
So not the greatest, but way better (ingredient wise anyway) than standard pancakes.
Happy Monday everyone!
