Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/3 cups buttermilk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

  •  Preheat griddle.
  •  In medium bowl, stir or sift dry ingredients together.
  •  Beat together egg, buttermilk, brown sugar and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened; batter should be slightly lumpy.
  •  Pour ¼ cup batter for each cake onto the well-seasoned, hot griddle. Flip pancake when bubbles appear on surface; turn only once.
  • Serve immediately with maple syrup.
  • Alternatives:
  • Omit soda. Use instead 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1 cup 2% milk. Add 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries.
  • Serve hot, chunky, spiced applesause or thick fruit sauce over cakes instead of syrup for extra nutrition and fiber.
