WHOLE wheat pancakes

Do you have some of this somewhere in your house?
Do you want to use it more in your life?
Well, here is the recipe for you!
"Star's Whole Wheat Pancakes"
Add to your blender: 1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Berries
2 cups milk
Blend for about 5 minutes
(this time is based on my blender,
I like my batter to be a bit chunky, with chewy little wheat bits
so blend longer for a smoother batter)
Add: 2 eggs
2 Tbs. Oil or melted butter (I like coconut oil best)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
dash of salt
Blend for about 30 more seconds
Heat butter or coconut oil in skillet or griddle
Stir batter and spoon from bottom of blender
This will help mix in the little wheat chunks as they tend to sink to the bottom
Make each pancake kind of small, this makes them easier to flip.
These would be great adding additional grains or nuts, maybe even some flax seed.
I know I can never get enough fiber!

  1. Wow, I had no idea you could grind wheat in a blender, that's cool Star! This will be a fun one to try, and a good way to use up food storage!

  2. Star, I remember you said you had a recipe for some kind of gluten-free pancakes. Do you think you could post it some time for my mom? (you don't have to do a photo or anything). Thanks!
