Tasty, Cheap and Healthy – can it be true?
Sunday, January 17th, 2010These are my new favorite homemade pancakes. Cheap and easy – made at home from scratch. So tasty – and much better than a box mix, plus healthy for you as they are made with whole wheat flour – but your family will never know the difference!

I have been using box pancakes mixes for years. That’s how I grew up eating pancakes and that just seemed to be the way to go. The idea of making pancakes from scratch just seemed like to much work for Sunday brunch. As it is I am brewing the coffee, poaching eggs, grilling the sausage…..well I just didn’t think I had time to make pancakes from scratch and still make it to church on time!
Well this weekend I go to the pantry – ugh - I am out of my pancake mix! Darn- toast and eggs? No – I really wanted pancakes. I had collected a few recipes over the years, but never tried them. This one looked good as it is made with whole wheat and is so easy and super delicious – I may never go back to the box!

Even better – these were the extras I had to pop in the freezer as a quick fix for during the week!
Yummy Whole Wheat Pancakes
1 Cup Whole Wheat flour
1 Cup regular flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbs. sugar
2 Cups Milk
2 Eggs
In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, combine the milk and eggs. Gently stir egg mixture into bowl with flour until the lumps are gone. Use non-stick spray to coat pan and cook pancakes over medium high heat.
Thank you to my friend Dina DeMeo for this great recipe!
