Instructions:
-
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond meal, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
-
Add Wet Ingredients: Crack the eggs into the bowl and add the chilled milk and oil. Use a whisk to mix everything together until the batter is smooth and well-blended. If you prefer a vegan option, you can replace the eggs with flax meal egg replacer.
-
Prepare the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, lightly grease it with a small amount of oil to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
-
Cook the Pancakes: Pour a ladle of batter onto the hot skillet. The batter will naturally spread and form its own boundary, so donβt try to spread it yourself. Allow the pancake to cook until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look dry, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden brown, around another 2-3 minutes.
-
Serve: Stack the cooked pancakes on a plate and top with fresh banana slices. Drizzle with honey for sweetness, and sprinkle with mixed nuts for added crunch and flavor.
-
Optional Pairing: For an extra burst of nutrition, pair the pancakes with a refreshing Golden Glow Smoothie. The smoothie complements the pancakes beautifully, creating a well-rounded and fulfilling breakfast.
Tips for the Perfect Pancake:
- Consistency: If the batter seems too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out to your desired consistency.
- Heat Control: Make sure your skillet is not too hot to avoid burning the pancakes. A moderate heat ensures even cooking and a golden-brown finish.
- Toppings: You can swap bananas for other seasonal fruits like berries or apples. For added flavor, a dollop of yogurt or a sprinkle of cinnamon can enhance the taste.
Enjoy these wholesome, whole wheat pancakes as a nourishing breakfast that will keep you energized throughout the day! Perfect for those busy mornings when you want to nourish your body with something filling, healthy, and delicious.
