Whole White Wheat Pancakes

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

These pancakes are made  with organic whole white wheat which has all the nutritional advantages of traditional whole wheat, but with a lighter color and a milder taste–just perfect for fluffy pancakes! It turns out whole white wheat flour is not refined flour, it is simply WHOLE flour – including the bran, germ and endosperm – made from Hard WHITE wheat. How about that?  Here is one I like to use and another one that may be easier to find at your regular supermarket. These pancakes are just as easy and quick to make  as any pre-made packages but with the upgraded nutrition. I find that even the natural wholesome brands I usually like, tend to add too much sodium, which I find unnecessary. These wholesome pancakes are absolutely delicious and are a nutritious breakfast in the morning. The options for toppings (or you can even put them in the batter) are limitless:  sliced bananas, nuts, bittersweet chocolate chips,  Simply Cinnamon Apples or just any fresh fruit and, of course, 100% Maple syrup which has nothing to do with the imitation syrups out there, nutritionally or taste-wise! Gabe foregoes the maple syrup all together just so that he can eat them on the go on a school morning!

White Whole Wheat Pancakes

Cuisinicity Tip: I like to use a batter dispenser for this recipe (shown below) not only because it makes it so much easier (and less messy) to pour the batter in equal amounts, but it's also great to keep in the fridge ready to go for the next day (not beyond that!), so I have it ready to throw on the stove on a busy school morning for Gabe!
Servings 8 -10 pancakes
Author Catherine Katz

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup organic whole white wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3 cage free large eggs
  • 1 cup unsweeteened almond milk
  • 2 Tbsp canola oil
  • 1 Tbsp plain seltzer water

Instructions

  • Place flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add the eggs, almond milk and canola oil.
  • Stir with a spoon just until combined----Do not over mix, it will make the pancakes tough.
  • Add the seltzer and briefly stir again.
  • Pour the batter in a batter dispenser (pictured below) and let it sit, without stirring, for 10 minutes.
  • Coat a large nonstick skillet or griddle with a little canola oil; heat over medium heat.
  • Pour the batter into the preheated pan (or onto the griddle) by pulling the release handle to make perfect circles.
  • Cook until the edges are dry and you see some bubbles on the surface, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more.

    Just made these pancakes! As always, fabulous! Didn’t change a thing, except I made the whole batch! Ate one with banana topping and 1 tbs peanut butter, and 1tsp honey warmed and drizzled over the top. I popped the rest in the freezer for a perfect fast food breakfast. Not as good as on the spot, off the griddle eating, but still homemade goodness on the run! Thank you again…..perfect.

        What can you substitute eggs with? Allergy issues.

    I love the bananas on top – they sold me! Thanks for these yummy breakfast recipes Catherine. I’ll have to add a nice protein smoothie for the hypoglycemics in my family. Delicious and filling – yummy!

    I agree, Catherine, most definitely yummier fresh off the grill. Stocking the fridge with optimal choices, like this one, I hope will change taste preferences and even taste buds over time. This is my strategy. I feel engaged as a parent more when I can do something like presenting fun possibilities that affect his choices about food. If he is anything like me, the sure way to the heart is through the stomach…. My difficulty, until now, has been my capacity to utilize the “health” word without satisfying fully the teenage imperative for “cheek pleasing” follow-through. So, phrases like, “it’s healthy, try it,” haven’t won me many points.
    The black bean spaghetti is spongier in texture than the standard spaghetti noodle. When I strained the pasta, the water was black, so I felt a lot of the nutrients flowed down the sink. But when I served it to my family, they all enjoyed it. My test is the supply/demand one. Moderate demands for more = moderate supplies of the same.
    Great chatting with you, Catherine! I am thrilled to finally find engaging health oriented solutions for raising families from such credible/trustworthy sources. :>) One stop shopping is a good thing for most busy/happy life people – like me.

    YAY!! Wait ’til he tries the pancakes right off the griddle, they are even yummier! How was that black bean spaghetti? It sounds great nutrition-wise, but….does it taste anything like spaghetti? if not, is it delicious? If your son liked it, I want to give it a try myself!!

    As planned, I prepared this recipe for my kids this morning. My daughter’s only criticism was that I didn’t put enough maple syrup on the pancakes. So in adding more, I was thankful for the cage free eggs, organic whole white wheat flour and unsweetened almond milk ingredients. She said, “how’s this different than other ‘normal’ pancakes.” She loves almond milk, so I wasted no time explaining this to her. Not being a morning person herself, the thumbs-up photo would be too challenging, but suffice to say I gained her approval.

    My 14 year old son said, “I don’t eat breakfast,” while consuming my organic frozen blueberry smoothie (with apples, vanilla yogurt, skim milk and flax seed).

    So, I have put the pancakes into my fridge for now and will heat one up, offering it to him with his favourite toppings before his hockey game this evening. Maybe, just maybe, this experience will produce an idea hook that leads him back to consuming solid food for breakfast. Hmm, we’ll see.

    Thank you, Catherine. This is a journey, and having your knowledge and expertise is helping me develop healthy teenagers.

      Wow John, you are one dedicated dad! That’s just great!! The fact that your daughter asked what was different about them is the best compliment you could get-YUMMY!! Can’t wait to hear what your son has to say! Nothing wrong with that amazing smoothie you whipped up for him-so good and so nutritious! I hope your kids realize how lucky they are!

        Thanks Catherine!
        My son found the pancakes in the fridge after school and then slathered peanut butter and chopped bananas on top of three he heated up. I also discovered organic black bean spaghetti (at Costco) which I prepared with a marinara sauce – the snack went down first though. :>)

    What can you use if you don’t have seltzer water?

      You can just use the same amount of plain water, it will still be ok. I just think the seltzer makes them a little more “bubbly” and light.
