100% Whole Wheat Harvest Pancakes image

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.

½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
1 dash ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

HEART HEALTHY HARVEST PANCAKES



Heart Healthy Harvest Pancakes image

This is what I threw together for breakfast this morning and my kids and husband loved them. If you have picky eaters just don't tell them there is squash, they will never know! Canned pumpkin puree can be substituted for the squash. I made them about 3-4 inches across and came up with 16 pancakes.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield About 24 small pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup whole milk, plus a couple tablespoons more if the batter is too thick
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
1 large egg
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Nonstick cooking spray, for the griddle
Blueberries, as needed, optional

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In another bowl, combine the milk, sour cream, vanilla bean paste and egg. Whisk together until smooth. Slowly pour the melted butter into the milk mixture while you continue to whisk.
  • Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until the batter is smooth. At this point, if the batter seems too thick, stir in a few tablespoons of milk. Transfer the batter to a squeeze bottle.
  • Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Pipe two 3-inch dollops of batter next to each other and just touching. Using a toothpick, drag the batter down to form the point of the heart. Add a few blueberries if using, gently pressing them into the batter. Continue with additional batter to make more pancakes. Wait until you see bubbles start to rise from the batter and peek underneath the pancakes to make sure they're uniformly golden brown. If so, flip! Continue cooking until the second side is golden brown. Continue with the remaining batter. Serve immediately.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield about 14 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup ground nuts (or walnuts)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup milk (you can use nonfat or 2 percent)
1/2 cup steamed and mashed winter squash (about 1/2 pound uncooked. I love "sweet dumpling")
2 slightly beaten egg yolks
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 egg whites

Steps:

  • Combine nuts, sugar, flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl, and set aside. In another bowl combine milk, squash, egg yolks and oil. With a large wooden spoon, stir the dry mixture into the squash mix and set aside. Beat the egg whites in a bowl until stiff peaks form. (Use a copper bowl for best results). Gently fold the stiff whites into the squash mixture. Heat up you skillet, and pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook until surface is bubbly and edges are slightly dry and flip. Cook until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Choose whole grain flours: Whole grain flours, such as whole wheat flour or oat flour, are a good source of fiber and nutrients. They can help keep you feeling full and satisfied, and they may also help lower your cholesterol levels.
  • Add fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables are a great way to add flavor, color, and nutrients to your pancakes. Try adding grated carrots, apples, or blueberries to your batter.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet will help prevent your pancakes from sticking and burning. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you can grease a regular skillet with cooking spray or butter.
  • Cook over medium heat: Cooking your pancakes over medium heat will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Flip your pancakes only once: When cooking your pancakes, only flip them once. Flipping them too often can make them tough and dry.
  • Serve with healthy toppings: Serve your pancakes with healthy toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or nuts. This will help make your meal more nutritious and satisfying.

Conclusion:

Harvest pancakes are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are made with whole grain flours, fruits, and vegetables, and they are cooked in a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and burning. Harvest pancakes can be served with a variety of healthy toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or nuts. By following these tips, you can make delicious and healthy harvest pancakes that the whole family will enjoy.
