Yummy! Good for you whole wheat and an outstanding cherry/maple sauce to top it all off. I mix the dry together and the wet together and refrigerate it the night before. From FoodFit. Ingredients:
1 1/2 teaspoons butter |
3 cups cherries, pitted and halved |
3/4 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2/3 cup skim milk |
1 large egg |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
2 tablespoons honey |
Directions:
1. Prepare the cherry sizzle, in a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fruit and cook until the cherries begin to soften slightly, about 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Add the maple syrup and bring to a boil. Set aside and keep warm.
3. For the whole wheat griddle cakes, mix the flours, baking powder and salt in a bowl. (This can be done the night before and kept covered on the counter.)
4. Lightly beat the milk, egg, oil and honey together.
5. Add the liquid ingredients all at once to the flour mixture.
6. Stir with a wooden spoon until just moistened.
7. Do not overmix, a few lumps are fine.
8. Warm a lightly greased griddle pan over medium heat.
9. The pan is ready when a few drops of water sprinkled on the griddle form fast-moving bubbles.
10. Pour batter onto the griddle: 1/8 cup for small or 1/4 cup for large pancakes.
11. When the tops of the pancakes are covered with holes and the bottoms are golden brown, flip to brown the other side.
12. Serve the griddle cakes topped with the cherry sizzle.
