My boyfriend loves when I make pancakes for the both of us on Saturday mornings. I've been playing around with a few recipes, but can't to find one that I love. I have these ingredients on hand...

-CarbQuik Flour
-Whole wheat flour
-Almond Flour
-Oat Flour
-Stevia
-Eggs
-Fat free milk
-So Delicious Coconut Milk Unsweetened

Any suggestions on a "Healthier version" of pancakes....

    1-1/2 c fresh or frozen blueberries
    1-1/2 c whole wheat flour
    3-1/2 tsp baking powder
    4 packets (4g) powdered stevia
    1/2 tsp salt
    1-1/4 c skim milk
    1/2 c egg substitute
    3 T canola oil

    In a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, stevia, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

    Create a well in the center of the bowl and whisk in the milk, egg substitute and oil. Don't overmix. Once blended, fold in blueberries with a spatula.

    Heat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. When hot, coat with cooking spray. Using a tablespoon measure, drop dollops of batter onto the griddle about an inch apart. Flip when edges dry and bubbles start to form. Continue with remaining batter.

    i dont have the recipe on hand but protein pancakes made with oatmeal and protein powder is really good. Add some sugar free jelly and you have an awesome meal.
  • Here's my recipe for partial whole grain pancakes. Not quite healthy but less unhealthy than others drowned in white flour, whole milk and butter. Good for someone who wants a less unhealthy pancake but doesn't want a strong whole grain flavor and texture. Just combine wet & dry ingredients and put on a hot griddle.

    Dry:
    2/3 cup Spelt Flour (spelt tastes lighter than whole wheat or oat flour)
    1/3 cup All Purpose Flour
    1 TBSP sugar
    1 tsp Baking Powder
    1/4 tsp baking soda
    1/4 tsp salt

    Wet:
    1 cup 2% milk
    1/2 large egg (around 2 TBSP)
    1.5 TBSP melted butter
