Whole wheat pancakes with mashed berries:
Makes 10 pancakes
- 1 1/4 C whole wheat flour
- 2 t baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 C milk, 1%
- 1/2 t salt
- 1 1/2 t cinnamon
- 1 1/2 T sugar
- 1 1/2 t vanilla
- 2 C frozen berries, thawed and mashed
Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until blended. Mix in the egg, milk and vanilla and stir until combined. Cook on a griddle at medium heat (about 350 degrees). Serve topped with the mashed berries.
FYI, the nutritional info below is calculated on a per-pancake basis. I wanted to know how many calories each pancake was giving me, rather than a tricky division of portions. The second set of nutrition facts is for the pancakes AND the berries, combined. With the topping, each pancake only sets you back ~100 calories. Awesome!
I would love some ideas for adding more fiber to the pancake batter. Feel free to leave comments with suggestions any time! I'm always looking for healthy, delicious tweaks to recipes.

I like adding flax seed meal to pancakes (or pretty much any bread) to add some extra fiber. Its also great in oatmeal
ReplyDeleteGood idea! I didn't even think of flax seed. I'll try that next time!
