ALTON BROWN'S FLUFFY WHOLE WHEAT PANCAKES
I've tried many whole wheat pancake recipes. Some were good, some not so good but I never had one make me say, "Wow! A truly fluffy whole wheat pancake!" until this one. Posting it here so I don't lose it! We love to eat these for dinner with some turkey sausage. Very filling!

Steps:
- Mix together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients. (I just melted the butter slightly before adding it in with the eggs and buttermilk.).
- Add the wet stuff to the dry stuff and mix just until batter comes together. Do NOT mix smooth. Set aside batter to rest for 5 minutes.
- * Heat an electric griddle to 350 degrees or place a nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat.
- *Test the griddle by flicking water on it. If the water dances across the surface, you're good to go.
- * Rub down the griddle with a little butter or spray with nonstick spray.
- Ladle 1 scoop of batter onto the griddle. (Batter will be thick! Just spread it out with the bottom of your ladle or the back of a spoon.) Cook until bubbles form in the batter and bottom is golden, approximately three minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden, another a minute or so. Adjust the heat as necessary as you go along. Serve while hot!

You also don't have to use oil/spray on the griddle if it's non-stick this way. - Try substituting some Whole-Grain Corn meal for flour and removing vanilla for corn cakes! - I also add salt & Garlic (remove vanilla) to make dinner cakes!

Steps:
- Sift DRY ingredients: Flour, Powder, & Salt into bowl. Use the whisk to push it through the Sieve.
- Make a well (hole) in the middle of the dry ingredients.
- Pour all the WET ingredients: Honey, Milk, Egg, Oil, & Vanilla into that well.
- DO NOT OVER MIX - it should only take about 20-30 strokes. Here's how:.
- Beat only the WET ingredients for a few strokes.
- Gradually add in the DRY ingredients, pulling just the edges into the center well.
- Keep doing this until all the DRY is incorporated into the WET and you have a batter.
- KEY: Let the batter sit for at LEAST 10min, 15 is better.
- Heat griddle to 350F - On a normal stove this is MEDIUM heat. If you have a knob with numbers 1-10, Medium is about #4.
- When you know griddle is hot, and batter has sat long enough ladle batter onto the hot surface.
- I suggest doing only 1 at first to see how much it spreads. No one likes Butt-Cheek Cakes ;).
- Let the cake cook for about 1-2min (it's fast, I know!).
- When the edges have solidified and there is less steam escaping it is ready to flip.
- Pancakes WILL TELL YOU when they are ready to be flipped. If it doesn't release on its own - it's not ready.
- Once flipped it should only cook about 1 more min - but 2 is fine.
- Place cooked cakes on damp paper/dish towel in a warm oven, covered.
- Repeat for the rest of the cakes.
- If setting a 2min timer works for you, do that - so shame is playing it safe ;).
- Pair with Strawberry Balsalmic Topping ! http://www.food.com/recipe/strawberry-balsamic-topping-sweet-savory-475098.
FLUFFY WHOLE WHEAT PANCAKES
Steps:
- Combine and cook as you would any pancakes from scratch. No need to add butter or oil to pan . Also not necessary to beat the egg first. The batter should be quite thick. I top with maple syrup and berries.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure your baking powder and baking soda are fresh and active. Old baking powder and baking soda can result in flat, dense pancakes.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, chewy pancakes.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier pancakes.
- Cook the pancakes over medium heat. High heat will cook the pancakes too quickly, resulting in a crispy exterior and a raw interior.
- Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping them too often can result in deflated pancakes.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
