100% Whole Wheat Harvest Pancakes
Finally a whole wheat pancake recipe that my kids gobbled up like they were going out of style! Spiced with fall flavor (apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and a hint of vanilla). These were so awesome, we had to share! I live at 4800 ft above sea level and cooked them at 375 degrees F.
Ingredients
-
2 cups whole wheat flour
-
1 tablespoon brown sugar
-
2 teaspoons baking powder
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
½ teaspoon baking soda
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
-
1 dash ground nutmeg
-
2 cups 2% milk
-
2 eggs
-
½ banana, mashed
-
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
-
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 apple, finely chopped
Description
-
Combine whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, ginger, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl, ideally one with a lip for pouring the batter later. Mix with a fork or whisk.
-
Combine milk, eggs, banana, oil, and vanilla extract in another bowl. Beat together using a hand mixer until frothy.
-
Heat a griddle or frying pan to 350 to 375 degrees F (175 to 190 degrees C), depending on altitude.
-
Pour milk mixture over the flour mixture and mix until just combined and most lumps have incorporated into the batter. Fold in apple. Let batter rest for 5 minutes.
-
Pour or ladle 1/3 cup of batter onto the griddle. Cook until edges are dry and bubbles form on the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
