Yield Makes 6 servings, 2 pancakes and about 1 Tbsp. spread each.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup creamy wheat (enriched farina) hot cereal (1-minute, 2-1/2-minute or 10-minute cook time), uncooked
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs, separated
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
2 Tbsp. margarine or butter, melted
1/2 tsp. grated orange zest

Steps:

Mix flour, cereal, sugar and baking powder in large bowl. Place egg yolks, milk, margarine and orange zest in medium bowl. Beat with wire whisk until well blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened.
Beat egg whites with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Add to batter; stir gently until well blended. (Batter will be lumpy).
Pour batter onto hot lightly greased griddle or into hot skillet, using 1/4 cup batter for each pancake. Cook on medium-high heat until bubbles form on tops, then turn to brown other sides. Serve with Orange Spread (see Tip).
