Clean Eating ~ Whole Wheat Pancakes

Pancakes have always been one of my favorite things to make on Saturday mornings after getting some much needed sleep. Unfortunately, pancakes are packed with processed flour and not-to-good-for-you stuff. That's why the hubs and I love this recipe so much!

This Whole Wheat Pancake recipe is clean (no processed foods) and is almost guilt-free! We prefer the taste of whole wheat to white, so this recipe is exactly what we look forward to every now and then on a lazier Saturday morning. If you try them out, I hope you enjoy these healthy, light and fluffy pancakes!


Whole Wheat Pancakes

Ingredients:
  •  2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 4 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. Stevia in the Raw
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups organic fat free milk
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • cooking spay
Directions:
  1. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. 
  2. Mix all wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
  3. Mix 2 bowls together well until there are no "dry spots", but do not over mix.
  4. Heat a large skillet on medium to low heat. Spray with cooking spray.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake. When the pancake begins to bubble, flip it over. 
  6. Repeat with the remainder of the batter.
  7. Serving size is 2 pancakes.
Other:
  • We use all-natural maple syrup, but you can find some tasty sugar free syrups as well!
  • Try adding some fruit when the pancake begins to bubble before you flip it over. Blueberries are one of our favorites!
I hope you try them! I know they're good when the hubs asks me to make them! Happy clean eating!
