PERFECT WHOLE WHEAT PANCAKES



Perfect Whole Wheat Pancakes image

This recipe comes from the Tassajara Bread Book. I like whole wheat but I hate the heaviness of the finished recipe and usually halve it with white flour. This recipe defies all of that. They are so good. The genius who created this recipe should get a medal. I have used powdered milk in place of regular milk for this and found no difference. I'm saying 8 pancakes in yield, but it really varies on the size you like your pancakes. Additional note: you can substitute applesauce for the oil (use the same amount) and they turn out exactly the same with a lot less calories.

EASY DELICIOUS WHOLE WHEAT PANCAKES



Easy Delicious Whole Wheat Pancakes image

Whole wheat flour makes pancakes taste nutty and delicious. This recipe is quite flexible. We love using a combination of whole wheat and all-purpose flour. The pancakes are lovely, light and fluffy. For 100% whole wheat pancakes, simply use all (1 1/2 cups) whole wheat flour and no all-purpose flour. We have noticed that whole wheat flour absorbs liquid a little more than all-purpose flour. Because of this, you might find that you need to add a little extra milk to the pancake batter before cooking the pancakes.

Yield Makes approximately 8 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup (100 grams) whole wheat flour
3/4 cup (100 grams) all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups (295 to 350 ml) milk, dairy or non-dairy
1 large egg
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the skillet or substitute coconut oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Whisk flours, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and the salt in a medium bowl, set aside.
  • Warm the milk until lukewarm, not hot (you should be able to keep your finger submerged for 10 seconds).
  • Whisk milk, butter, egg, and the vanilla together until blended.
  • Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour milk mixture into the well and stir with a fork until mixed and only small clumps of flour remain. Do not over mix batter. Note: The batter will be quite thick. If it is unreasonably thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons more milk to thin it out a little.
  • Heat a large skillet (or use griddle) over medium heat. The pan is ready if when you splatter a little water onto the pan surface, the water dances around the pan and eventually evaporates.
  • Lightly brush skillet with melted butter. Spoon a 1/4-cup of the batter onto the skillet and gently spread into a 4-inch circle. (If the batter is thick, you may need to use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circle).
  • When the edges look dry and bubbles start to appear and pop on the top surfaces of the pancakes, turn over, about 2 minutes. Once flipped, cook 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked in the middle. Serve warm with syrup, bananas or other toppings.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 8-12 small pancakes, 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Sift whole wheat flour into a large bowl. Add baking powder and baking soda and mix well.
  • In another bowl, mix the yogurt, milk and egg together well.
  • Add the wet mix to the dry mix and stir to make sure all ingredients are incorporated well.
  • Leave the batter to rise for 10-15 minutes. This will let the yogurt and baking soda react and bubbles should start to appear.
  • Grease a non-stick skillet and heat it up. Turn the heat down to medium before cooking the pancakes.
  • Use about 1/8 cup batter for a small, 3-4" pancake. Cook until the edges of the pancake are slightly browned before flipping. Cook the other side until done.
  • Adjust heat and/or regrease skillet if needed. Serve with toppings.

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
