Pancakes With Ground Flax / Flax Seed image

Puffy, fluffy, crispy! This is very loosely based off a "Reader's Quick Recipe" from May 2007's Bon Appetit magazine. I have also made this with 1 1/2 c. flour, 1/4 c. flax, 3 t. baking powder, & 1% milk. Slightly healthier; not as much raving from DH ;-)

HEALTHY WHOLE WHEAT BRAN, FLAX, WHEY PANCAKES WITH YOGURT CHEESE



Healthy Whole Wheat Bran, Flax, Whey Pancakes With Yogurt Cheese image

I've adapted a Better Homes and Gardens cookbook recipe to have whole wheat, flax, bran, and whey for extra protein, as well as some spices. I add blueberries (or strawberries, or whatever else is handy) and yogurt cheese on top for some extra YUM. These probably sound pretty dull and possibly health-food-weirdo strange, but they are delicious and feel like a very indulgent treat rather than health food! I quadruple the recipe and freeze what we don't eat. They reheat great. NOTE: These make a thin, nearly crepe-like pancake. If you like a thicker pancake, use less liquid.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 17m

Yield 12 pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-bran cereal (not All-Bran-it's too heavy(I've found Trader Joe's high-fiber cereal works best)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup whey (or water or milk)
1/3 cup powdered milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 cup blueberries (or other fruit)
3 tablespoons nonfat yogurt cheese
3 tablespoons maple syrup

Steps:

  • Put cereal in a small bowl with enough whey to cover it. Let it soak while you put together the rest of the ingredients.
  • Put the remainder of the whey, along with all the other ingredients, in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly. Add the moistened All Bran (it should be very mushy) and mix again.
  • Drop by 1/3 cupfuls on a hot skillet or griddle. Flip when the top gets bubbled and cook until golden.
  • Top with a generous helping of yogurt cheese, which adds protein and seems like cream cheese or cream, without the fat. Add your strawberries or blueberries and some maple syrup!

FLOURLESS FLAX SEED PANCAKES



Flourless Flax Seed Pancakes image

As well as being nutritious these pancakes are really tasty. Flax seeds give them added fiber, something we can all use. I am going to substitute the 3 eggs with either 1 1/2 banana or 3/4 cup apple sauce. Also I will substitute the protein powder with soy milk powder and instead of using heavy cream, I will use coconut...

Enjoy!

Fluffy pancakes with ground flax seed and blueberries for a healthier, fiber filled pancake.

Provided by Freckles

Categories     100+ Breakfast and Brunch Recipes     Pancake Recipes

Time 5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 ½ cups dry pancake mix
½ cup flax seed meal
1 cup skim milk
2 eggs
1 cup fresh or thawed frozen blueberries

Steps:

  • Set a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the pancake mix and flax seed meal. In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the milk and eggs. Pour the liquid into the dry ingredients, and stir just until moistened.
  • Spoon 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the hot skillet. Sprinkle with as many blueberries as desired. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook until browned on the other side.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: This will give your pancakes a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: This will allow the oats to absorb some of the liquid and will help to create a thicker, more flavorful pancake.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: Flipping them too often will make them tough.
  • Serve the pancakes warm: Pancakes are best when served fresh off the griddle.

Conclusion:

Flax pancakes are a delicious and healthy breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect flax pancakes every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and healthy breakfast, give flax pancakes a try!
