Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes

This has become our favorite pancake recipe... I probably make it at least once a week at the request of my kids. In fact, I've made it so often that it is one of the few recipes I know by heart so it comes together really quickly.

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup white all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup water
1 egg
2 tablespoons oil

Whisk together all dry ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Add wet ingredients and mix well. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot greased griddle. Flip when bubbles pop on surface of pancake. Remove when edges look brown. Serve with your favorite pancake toppings. Makes about 10 6-inch pancakes. Enjoy!

Peanut Butter Pancakes

A lot of pancake recipes claim to cook up light and fluffy... only to fall far short of the mark. This is the first recipe I've found that actually lives up to expectations. And, as an added bonus, they taste marvelous! We're fans of peanut butter on pancakes around here - but that can get kind of messy with the kids, so these were a fabulous find... all the peanut butter taste without the mess! Try them. Tonight.
