Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • 1 1/2 C low-fat milk
  • 1 C whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 C all-purpose flour
  • Nonstick cooking spray, as needed

Directions

Mise en place

  • Measure out the ingredients.

Prepare

  • In a large bowl, mix eggs, salt, sugar, honey, and milk. In a separate bowl, combine the two flours. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
  • Spray a nonstick pan with a light coating of cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Pour or ladle a small amount of batter into the pan (about 1/4 C of batter, for a small-medium sized pan). Immediately lift the pan and swirl the batter around so it coats the entire bottom of the pan.
  • As soon as the edges of the pancake start to pull away from the sides of the pan, and the center of the pancake looks solid, use a spatula to lift the edges of the pancake up, then FLIP the pancake over!

Serve

  • Cook for just another minute or two, and slide onto a plate. The pancakes will stay warm piled on top of each other. Serve with Chia Seed Jam.
  • Enjoy!
