Whole Wheat Pancakes - Mom Style

Fluffy pancakes cooked to golden crispness on the outside.

Mix in a large bowl.

1/4 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp sugar
pinch of salt

in separate smaller bowl mix
1 egg
3/4 - 1 cup milk
2 tblsp oil (we prefer olive oil)

After wet ingredients are mixed, pour them into the dry ingredients and mix.

To cook

  1. Heat skillet with some oil in bottom.
  2. Drop spoonfuls of batter into hot skillet. When bubbles begin to break the surface of the pancake flip it.
  3. Cook a few minutes more on other side.
  4. Add more oil as needed to pan to keep pancakes from sticking.
  5. Serve with your favorite sauce.

Variation:
We love to cook up a whole batch of small pancakes. Sprinkle with a little icing sugar and eat like finger food treats. They are crisp and delicious.
