Fiber-Rich Pancakes image

We like pancakes and bacon on the weekend, but it's often a fatty and unhealthy breakfast. So, I've been trying to come up with a healthier version. It's still quite light, despite being full of grains and fiber. They're also very filling - two will usually be enough per person.

Time 30m

Yield 18 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 eggs
2 1/2 cups white flour
1/2 cup wheat bran
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup flax seed meal
2 1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Steps:

  • Beat eggs with hand beater in large bowl until fluffy. This takes 3-4 minutes.
  • Beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth.
  • Let batter sit for about 5 minutes to let the grains absorb the liquid. If it's still too liquid, add water 1-2 Tbsp at a time until it's right.
  • Fry pancakes on hot griddle - about 4 minutes on each side.
  • Serve with butter, syrup and/or jam.
