FAMILY FRIENDLY (WHOLE WHEAT) PANCAKES


Don't let the "whole wheat" scare you -- these are actually delicious. I took my favourite fluffy pancake recipe, and modified them to have less sugar and more fibre. The result was shockingly delicious. We've been making these on repeat, and storing a big batch in the freezer (they reheat well in the toaster). 

FAMILY FRIENDLY (WHOLE WHEAT) PANCAKES // makes ~20

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup almond meal
1/4 cup flax meal 
2 Tbsp wheat bran 
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 cups milk + 1 Tbsp white vinegar
1/2 cup pear juice (or water, or more milk) 
2 eggs

What to do:

Whisk together the wet ingredients and set aside. 

In a medium bowl, stir together the dry ingredients. Add the wet ingredients and stir to just combine. 

Let the batter rest while the oven preheats to 350 (approx 10 minutes). Scoop batter onto 2 parchment lined baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes (Sure these can be fried up like regular pancakes, but baking them saves a ton of time). They freeze super well and are lovely reheated in the toaster.
