Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes
makes 9-12 pancakes
2 eggs (or equivalent egg whites/ egg beaters, if you want to lower the fat)
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 Cup Whole Wheat flour
1 3/4 cup plain yogurt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2T sugar (opt)
2T oil (use applesauce to lower fat by 2g)
1. Beat eggs well.
2. Add other ingredients except oil (applesauce) and mix. (allow batter to sit 5 min. if time permits) Add oil (applesauce) and mix again. *
3. Pour on greased griddle, 1/4 cup at a time. Flip when surface is full of bubbles.
4. Serve as soon as possible, try not to stack pancakes.
*{ETA: I have since learned that the key to whole wheat pancakes is to mix all of the ingredients and allow the batter to sit for 15 minutes to soften the grain, then proceed w/the recipe - this makes a wonderfully fluffy and great textured pancake. Try it and see how you like it.)}
Variations:
1. Use all wheat flour.
2. Add 1/2-3/4 cup blueberries
3. Add 1/2 cup diced apples, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon.
*Try as written before doing variations, so you know what you want to change about it.

*using egg whites/egg beaters reduces this to 2g, using applesauce makes it virtually fat free, but I don't know how this affects the taste maybe only make one change at a time. I use organic omega-3 eggs, so I use the entire egg for other health benefits.
**using egg whites will also lower the cholesterol
***Since sugar is optional, this varies
