I like the nutrition that comes from less processed ingredients. So I have an inexpensive flour mill (hand operated) and some whole wheat grain that I like to use occasionally since most of the flour bought in the market is heavily processed. You get extra nutrition from the less processed flour. I use the flour in pancakes and tortillas and these pancakes came out great with a deep rich taste.
Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups of quality whole wheat flour (I ground my own)
- 1/3 cup of all purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups of 2% milk
- 1/2 tablespoon melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- Butter for cooking
Directions
Put dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir until combined. Add eggs and milk to a bowl and stir. Add 1/2 of the eggs and milk mixture along with the vanilla to a bowl and stir till combined, then add the rest and stir again till combined. Heat a non stick pan on medium heat till hot, then a small amount of butter to a pan to coat the bottom, then pour in enough of the batter for the desired size pan cake. Cook till you see the edges are starting to look dry and there are bubbles in the center. Flip the pancake and cook on the second side till lightly brown. Then server and enjoy.
