Mix a pancake, Stir a pancake, Pop it in the pan

I got this recipe for whole grain waffles from my friend Christine. They are delicious, and taste like they're made with white flour! I like waffles better than pancakes, but since my waffle iron's non-stick coating started peeling we threw it out and I have yet to find a replacement. In the meantime, it's pancakes!

Blender Batter Pancakes or Waffles

2 c. Buttermilk or Milk with 1T yogurt
1/2 c. Whole Millet
1/2 c. Whole Brown Rice
1/2 c. whole Oats
1/2 c. Soft Wheat Berries or other grain
3 Tbsp. Oil or butter
1-2 Eggs
1 t. Baking Powder
1/2 t. Salt
1/4 t. Baking Soda

Place milk, oil/butter and grains in blender. Blend at highest speed for 4 minutes. If the mixture does not hold a vortex, add a bit more milk. Cover this and let soak overnight or proceed to next step Add eggs and blend 1 minute. Add baking powder, salt and baking soda and blend briefly to mix in leavenings. Prepare pancakes or waffles from batter.

Yummy with canned peaches, frozen blueberries (warmed :) or (and!) maple syrup.

  2. I tried milling the grains this time & using the mixer instead of the blender. Batter was a little runny and texture a bit crumbly. Added a Tbsp of sugar.
