Pancakes!



I regularly look for recipes online to modify or  make healthier to enjoy our favorites.  Maisie loves pancakes and I tried to convince her into some coconut flour pancakes today, but no success.  She does not like even a hint of coconut, while I on the other hand love it!  So I opted for my Trader Joe's White Whole Wheat Flour.  I found this recipe online and decided to divide it in half to make just a few pancakes.

I pinned the original recipe on my Pinterest board for Healthy Recipes...

I cut everything in half and made minor adjustments, as I like a bit more cinnamon and brown sugar:

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp organic brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup 1 tbs almond milk
This made about 5 good size pancakes.  I opted to use the almond milk as I already had the other ingredients in the bowl and realized we were out of milk!  They turned out pretty good.  I may opt to substitute the egg in the future to make them vegan.

I figured I'd start to keep my recipes here for my own future reference!

Happy Sunday...
