better pancakes

It’s Pancake Tuesday.  Here’s a simple way to health up dinner tonight (or breakfast tomorrow!) These pancakes are delicious and you can freeze them and reheat during the week if you have leftovers!  Experiment with adding grated apple, blueberries or strawberries, chopped banana, or other fruit to pump up the nutritional value.  If you are serving more than 3, you will likely need to double the recipe.

 

1/2 cup all purpose flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

2 tbsp ground flax

2 tbsp wheat germ

2 tbsp sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 large egg, beaten

1/2 tsp cinnamon

2 tbsp olive oil

3/4 cup almond, soy or skim milk

 

Mix dry ingredients and add egg, oil and milk until combined.  Add water as necessary to get to desired pourable consistency.  Cook in a large nonstick or oiled pan over medium heat.
