WHOLE WHEAT BUTTERMILK PANCAKES (WITH WHEAT GERM)

Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes (With Wheat Germ) image

Holy Colon-Blow, Batman! Please don't let the uber-healthy, fiber filled name of this recipe turn you off. (Because in reality, these are quite good, and good for you too!) My sweet girl, Lauren's folks gave us a 5 lb ricotta cheese container filled with WHEAT GERM, which they had bought in bulk. My frantic search for "wheat germ" recipes led me to this one--and I'm sticking with it! They came out nice and fluffy. Can be served with maple syrup, but I think fruit jam, jelly or even honey would be nice as well.

Time 20m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup canola oil
2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)

Steps:

Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl (whole wheat flour, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg) until well blended.
In a bowl, gently mix the wet ingredients (eggs, oil and buttermilk).
Slowly add dry to wet and mix until blended.
Heat stove top griddle or frying pan on medium-high heat.
Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each cake onto the griddle.
Cook until bubbles appear, and begin to gently break, then flip pancakes.
Cook another minute or so on the other side.
Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients. This will make your pancakes taste better and be more nutritious.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten in the flour to relax, which will also make the pancakes tender.
Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.

Conclusion:

These wheat germ whole wheat buttermilk pancakes are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They're easy to make and can be customized with your favorite toppings. So next time you're looking for a breakfast that will make you feel good, give these pancakes a try!
