FOUR GRAIN PANCAKES OR WAFFLES

I don't know where this recipe came from, but I am so glad I found it in my "to try" pile. I made them as pancakes for breakfast today. They have a nice texture, not heavy at all (which I was worried about). They make a nice change from traditional pancakes. I did tinker with the recipe a bit, so I put those changes in as an option.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 c whole wheat flour (i used freshly ground)
1 c oats, processed to flour
1/3 c nonfat milk powder
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 1/2 c water
LARGE BATCH OF MIX TO STORE & USE AS NEEDED
4 c whole wheat flour ( i use freshly ground)
4 c oats, processed into flour in food processor
1 1/3 c dry milk
1/4 c baking powder
1 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all dry ingredients.
  • 2. Add the remaining ingredients & let sit a few minutes for the oats & flour to absorb some of the liquid.
  • 3. Prepare as you would pancakes using a 1/4 cup measuring cup to measure out batter. This should make about 12 6" pancakes.
  • 4. About 80 calories per pancake & about 18 grams carbohydrate
  • 5. This mix can also be used to make waffles.
  • 6. To make cookies add to the dry ingredients: 2/3 cup brown sugar, 2 tsp cinnamon, 2/3 cup raisins or chocolate chips, 1/2 cup applesauce, 2 eggs & 1 tsp vanilla. Mix & drop onto greased baking sheet & bake for about 12 minutes at 350'
  • 7. FOR THE LARGE BATCH: COMBINE ALL INGREDIENTS, STORE IN A GALLON SIZE JAR OR CONTAINER. USE 2 CUPS MIX, 2 CUPS MILK, 2 EGGS & 1/4 CUP MELTED BUTTER, OIL OR APPLESAUCE & PREPARE AS PANCAKES

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your pancakes or waffles the best flavor. If you can, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your pancakes or waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking will allow the gluten to relax and will result in lighter, fluffier pancakes or waffles.
  • Use a hot griddle or waffle iron: A hot griddle or waffle iron is essential for cooking pancakes or waffles. If the griddle or waffle iron is not hot enough, the pancakes or waffles will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the pancakes or waffles until they are golden brown: Pancakes and waffles should be cooked until they are golden brown on both sides. This will ensure that they are cooked all the way through.

With a little practice, you can make delicious pancakes or waffles at home.
