How to Make 100 Whole Wheat Low Fat Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: milk, egg, oil, and vanilla extract.
  3. For fluffy pancakes: Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a wooden spoon. Leave some lumps for thicker pancakes.
  4. For thin pancakes: Combine all ingredients (wet and dry) in a blender and blend until smooth.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
