Whole Grain Coconut Milk Pancakes
Bulk whole grain pancake mix is on sale at my local Whole Foods so I
was inspired to try it out for the first time. I need to ask them to be
sure but I'm guessing it is mostly a combo of buckwheat and whole wheat
pastry flour and most likely has a few other whole grains mixed in
there (teff flour, soy flour, and amaranth flour maybe). So I
tried it out. :
1. Mix approx. 1 cup whole grain pancake mix and 1 egg
2. Add approximately one cup coconut milk (I used vanilla flavored
coconut milk. you could use plain and just add a 1/2 teaspoon of
vanilla with it)
3. Pour enough batter to form 4-5" diameter pancakes on a warm griddle
4. Wait for the top of the pancakes to bubble around the edges before flipping!
(please don't quote me on these measurements since I rarely use exact measuring for pancakes but add as much milk as you need to reach a good consistency. Add more milk to create a thinner batter that can be used for crepes instead)
They turned out great! Fluffed up good,
had a nice full depth to the flavor and no gritty (typical whole grain)
texture. My only complaint is that I didn't have honey or agave to use
as a syrup sub. (Next time...)
