Today I'm going to make some blueberry pancakes using whole wheat flour and a little bit of ground flax seed meal. More to come including photos and the full recipe...
Ok I sorta cheated by using whole grain pancake mix, I do that because the mix already has the correct amount of baking powder and baking soda and all that stuff.
I followed the directions on the box. I cut the recipe in half cause there are only two of us eating and I am trying not to eat too much.
I used 1 cup of the whole grain pancake mix
1 egg
1 tsp melted butter
1 tsp of olive oil (the directions on the box called for two tablespoons of oil)
1 cup milk
2 tblsp ground flax seed meal
1 cup frozen blueberries.
mix all the ingredients in a bowl, blueberries last. Try not to stir the mix too much cause this will make your pancakes tough.
Heat a large skillet and make whatever sized pancakes you like. I made one giant one but it was hard to flip, so the next three were normal size.
I cooked some fake veggie bacon on the side. I love veggie bacon. I started buying it to be healthy, but now I really love the way it tastes.
The conclusion of this post is that it's official, I am a California Hippie. Yikes!! I thought I was just making a post about a delicious breakfast, but really, whole grain flax meal pancakes? and veggie bacon? I am officially a granola eating Cali Hippie.
Oh well, it's a nice day. I going out for a long walk in my pretty CA neighborhood!
