100% WHOLE WHEAT LOW FAT PANCAKES



100% Whole Wheat Low Fat Pancakes image

I created these one day for my kiddies when I couldn't find a recipe that fit my bill. They turned out great! Note: If you like fluffy pancakes stir wet ingredients into dry with a wooden spoon leaving some lumps (more lumps=bigger cakes), alternately if you like thin pancakes, like me, use your blender to mix all the ingredients at once and blend until smooth UPDATE: SEPT '07: For those who don't like really thick pancakes try reducing flour by 1/2cup and replacing it with milk, this will give a runnier batter and should give a thinner pancake :)THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS EVERYONE!!! (GOOD AND BAD, WE ALL LEARN FROM CRITISISM TOO ;) )

Time 20m

Yield 12 medium cakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups low-fat milk (ie 1%, skim)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 large egg
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 -2 cup fruit (i.e., sliced bananas, strawberries, blueberries...your choice) (optional)

Steps:

  • Depending on your preference (see description above) blend/mix all ingredients except fruit.
  • Heat pan on medium till drop of water "dances" in pan.
  • Pour batter into pan to desired size of pancake, if using fruit add small handfuls to individual cakes after pouring into pan (I've done both adding to batter and adding to individual cakes and this works best for me, fruit tends to sink to bottom of bowl but both ways are acceptable).
  • When bubbles appear on surface and begin to "sink" flip and cook on other side until brown.
  • Note: if you are using a good non-stick pan it is not necessary to use oil in the pan!
  • Repeat with remaining batter until all gone.
  • Serve with favorite topping i.e., fruit, syrup, jam etc.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 ¼ cups buttermilk
2 eggs
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Whisk whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisk buttermilk, eggs, and vegetable oil in a separate bowl; pour buttermilk mixture into dry ingredients. Stir just until combined (batter may seem a bit thick).
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Pour 1/3 cup of batter onto hot skillet and use a spoon to spread the pancake a bit. Cook until browned and bubbles appear on top, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until browned and set in the middle, about 2 more minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Tips:

  • To make the pancakes even healthier, use almond milk or soy milk instead of regular milk.
  • Add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed or chia seeds to the batter for an extra boost of omega-3 fatty acids.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to grease your griddle or pan well before cooking the pancakes to prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
