Ingredients

    1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour (if you can't find pastry flour, regular whole wheat flour is fine)
    1 tbsp ground flaxseed
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
    1 packet/1 tsp sugar or sugar substitute (I used Sugar in the Raw)
    1/8 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp baking soda
    2 egg whites or up to 2 servings of egg substitute
    1/4 lowfat, skim, soy, or nut milk
    1/4 cup plain or vanilla yogurt
    1/2 tsp vegetable oil spread for griddle, or nonfat cooking spray

Directions

1) Whisk your dry ingredients - flour, flaxseed, cinnamon, salt, sugar, baking powder and baking soda - in a large mixing bowl until well-combined.

2) In a second mixing bowl, mix your egg whites, milk, yogurt, and honey until it resembles a thick cream.

3) Drop your wet ingredients into your dry, then with a tablespoon or wooden spoon, gently stir until barely combined. Small lumps are desired here; making the batter too smooth will result in a dense, flat pancake.

4) Heat your griddle on medium-low and grease it with your spread or cooking spray. It will be ready when it starts to sizzle.

5) Use a 1/4 cup measuring spoon to measure your batter. Put one or two scoopfuls onto the griddle and let cook for around two to three minutes until the bottom is golden-brown.

6) Flip and cook on the other side for a couple more minutes until golden-brown.

7) Remove the pancakes, then repeat cooking process until batter is finished.

8) Now serve! This recipe makes 4 pancakes. Feel free to tweak this recipe using your favorite fruits, syrups, and jellies!
