Pancakes Delish!!!!

I have tried to find the right mix of whole grains to make pancakes fluffy, sweet, etc, everything nice you can think of when thinking about pancakes, yet full of nutrition and just the right flavor...... after a LONG time of trying, I think I have found the right mix.
So here we go!
QUINOA, BROWN RICE, BARLEY, WHEAT, MILLET, OAT GROATS, SPELT,  TRITICALE will give you the best pancakes!
The key?... The right amounts of each grain and soaking overnight!

Whole Grain-Buttermilk Pancakes

3 1/2 c. whole grain flour
3 c. buttermilk or sour milk

4 T. rapadura
4t. baking powder (aluminum free)
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. xanthan gum
2 eggs
6 T. Coconut Oil
(1 c. desired fruit) bananas, blueberries, etc (optional)
Pure Maple Syrup or honey

Mix well the grain-flour in the buttermilk. Cover with a kitchen towel and let soak for at least 10-12 hrs. at room temperature.

In the morning, mix by hand the rest of the ingredients except maple or honey.
Cook pancakes on hot griddle.
Enjoy!  You will.   I promise.

  2. Aby, Can you tell us what rapadura is? Where do you buy it? I have never heard of it.

  3. Yes of course!! Rapadura is sugar in its rawest form. No processing of any kind whatsoever. You can find it at any health food store. I buy it ib bulk from Azure Standard to save money on it. It has a distinct delicious smell to it.
