WHOLE WHEAT BUTTERMILK PANCAKES (WITH WHEAT GERM)



Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes (With Wheat Germ) image

Holy Colon-Blow, Batman! Please don't let the uber-healthy, fiber filled name of this recipe turn you off. (Because in reality, these are quite good, and good for you too!) My sweet girl, Lauren's folks gave us a 5 lb ricotta cheese container filled with WHEAT GERM, which they had bought in bulk. My frantic search for "wheat germ" recipes led me to this one--and I'm sticking with it! They came out nice and fluffy. Can be served with maple syrup, but I think fruit jam, jelly or even honey would be nice as well.

Time 20m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup canola oil
2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl (whole wheat flour, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg) until well blended.
  • In a bowl, gently mix the wet ingredients (eggs, oil and buttermilk).
  • Slowly add dry to wet and mix until blended.
  • Heat stove top griddle or frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each cake onto the griddle.
  • Cook until bubbles appear, and begin to gently break, then flip pancakes.
  • Cook another minute or so on the other side.
  • Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Prepare Ingredients in Advance: Measure and gather all ingredients before starting to cook. This will help streamline the cooking process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh buttermilk, eggs, and wheat germ will yield the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixed batter will result in tough pancakes. Mix only until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook Pancakes Over Medium Heat: This will prevent the pancakes from burning and ensure they cook evenly.
  • Flip Pancakes Only Once: Flipping pancakes too often can result in them breaking apart. Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake before flipping.
  • Serve Pancakes Immediately: Freshly cooked pancakes are the best. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.
