Whole Wheat Pancakes

Whole Wheat Pancakes

3/4 c - Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 c - All Purpose Flour
3 T - Splenda or Sugar
2 t - Baking powder
1/4 t - Salt

2 - large eggs separated
1 c - fat free milk
3 T - Butter melted

Non stick cooking spray
Griddle heated to 350 degrees

Ok, so these pancakes take a little longer to make but they are delicious!!!

For starters, put first 5 ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl
In a small bowl mix together melted butter, milk and egg yolks
And lastly whip up egg whites (with a CLEAN whisk!) until firm peaks
Add the milk mixture to the dry mixture and stir till combined
fold in the egg whites into the mixture (don't stir or won't be as light and fluffy)

Take a large soup spoon and on a greased (sprayed) griddle use 2 spoon fulls in each pancake, cook until bubbles set on top (about 3-5 mins) then flip and cook for another 2-3 mins!

Thats it! This recipe makes about 12 pancakes, and I'm putting a serving size down as 2 pancakes, although since they are low calorie, and relatively low fat you could easily have 3 and not feel guilty!

They may not be the best, but they are definitely a million times better than what you would get in other places. They are super tasty!
