Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes

Usually I'm all about egg whites and wheat toast... or bowl of cereal. But on holidays we treat ourselves and do it up right. Today it was blueberry pancakes. Usually I just throw a recipe up here and leave you to it. This time, however, there are pictures documenting all the steps. That way you'll know I really do cook!


INGREDIENTS

1 cup white flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tbs and 1 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt
3 tbs sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup blueberries

Combine all the dry ingredients




Beat the eggs, milk and vanilla until combined and add to the dry ingredients

Gently mix in the blueberries. GENTLY!!





Plug in your flat top griddle. If you dont have one - use the largest skillet you have. I set my griddle at 350 degrees. If you're using a stove top I'd go with a medium heat



Pour out your pancakes using a 1/2 cup measure

When they start to bubble like this....


Flip them! You should only turn them once

Your finished product should come out like this



Serve it up with some low cal or sugar free syrup








You may or may not have any left overs



Bear in mind that the wheat flour gives the pancake a richer maybe denser consistency than what you would get using Aunt Jemima or Bisquick. But they are delicious. Steve gave them a two thumbs up!

So take a little time and make your loved ones something home made instead of out of a box. It won't take long and they'll love you for it.
