PANCAKES!!!














Chocolate Chip Banana Berry Pancakes

Serves 5-6 people

Ingredients:
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup white flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups nonfat milk
1 cup plain yogurt
1 cup (8 oz) blueberries (optional)
2 bananas, chopped or mashed (optional)
½ cup (4 oz) chocolate chips (optional)
canola or coconut oil

Directions:
1. Mix together the flours, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, and mix in the milk and yogurt.
3. Pour the flour mixture into the egg mixture and stir well.
4. Add in the fruits and chocolate as desired.
5. Heat up a griddle or pan on the stove and pour enough oil on to barely coat the surface.
6. Drop about ½ cup of the mixture on the heated pan. Repeat for as many pancakes as you can easily fit on the pan without their edges touching.
7. When bubbles begin to form, use a spatula to flip the pancakes to their other side and continue heating until cooked throughout.
8. Serve warm and top with maple syrup, honey, jam, or applesauce.

Hints:
• Frozen blueberries can be used if you don’t have fresh ones available.
• If the batter is too thin, add more flour, and if it is too thick, add more milk.
• If you are having trouble flipping the pancakes, make them smaller.
