Wheat Pancakes!

[OnenessWoman]

In my house we no longer eat pancakes (or waffles) that are made out of the box like we used to. It started because, for me, whenever I eat them, as well as white pasta and rice, I find that I am more hungry, instead of filled, after eating them. Though I love pancakes, until I found this recipe, I had quit eathing them altogether.

Wheat pancakes:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cub all-purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp banking sode
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup milk
1 egg

mix all together to make batter and cook same as with other pakcakes

We also make our waffles with this recipe...

They are yummy with turkey breakfast sausage!!

I really don't have a clue what buckwheat tastes like, though....

Yes, they are good. My ex-wife used to make them all the time, they were very good.

Whenever we make pancakes at our house, using any recipe, we split the flour as 1/2 white 1/2 wheat. All wheat is just too heavy a cake.
In fact I do the add'l use of whole wheat flour in most recipes. Depending on the dessert....1/3 to 1/2 whole wheat substitution.
It increases flavor, fiber and nutrition!!



When ever I have a day off I treat myself to special breakfasts. Obviously there's no time as you run out the door for work

Today I had a craving for french toast. I often "experiment" and this morning I saw the orange extract next to the vanilla , and said, why not?
The usual egg and milk whisked in the bowl and then a sprinkle of nutmeg as always and instead of vanilla.....orange extract. Fabulous!!!

An added benefit....the great intense flavor decreased the need for syrup or jam on top. Just a little dab of jam and YUM!

I know there are many coffee drinkers out there and many of you indulge in the coffee shop beverages. I too enjoy the specialty coffee blends but if you all recall-----I'm cheap!
A few months ago I had a $1 off coupon for Dunkin Donuts coffee and thought...ok. I bought the beans (but it can be purchased ground), It's a lovely smooth cup a joe.
I've just enjoyed a couple of cups===with 1/2 &1/2; ha, we all have our vices!

You can buy it at Walgreens, Target and Walmart.
A very mild tasty flavor!

Oooo, orange french toast sounds good.

My son's been making Nigella Lawson's "doughnut french toast", lately. Yummy!

I bought some buckwheat pancake mix.

I didn't like the buckwheat pancakes-- too heavy.
