New healthy recipe

Thursday, March 14, 2013

Good morning all my wonderful Sparkfriends!!
Yesterday my daughter wanted pancakes for dinner. Since I already had dinner planned, I thought I would make pancakes for breakfast. I am always striving to make our meals much more healthy and beneficial for our bodies. So, I took a plain pancake recipe from Betty Crocker and made it my own. My daughters and I LOVED them so I wanted to share the recipe with you. Make it your own!!
I call them, "Blueberry Wheat Flaxseed Pancakes".
INGREDIENTS:
2 lg whole eggs
1/2 cup white or whole wheat flour (I used white)
4 tbls flaxseed meal
4 tbls wheat germ
3/4 cup honey flavored Greek Yogurt
1 tbls granulated sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups frozen blueberries
DIRECTIONS: Beat the eggs until fluffy. Add all other ingredients and cook pancakes on a griddle like you would normal pancakes. Makes 6 pancakes about 4.5-5 in diameter.
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER PANCAKE:
180 cal
6.4 fat
80.3 cholesterol
136.8 sodium
39.1 potassium
25.2 carbs
3.7 fiber
11.5 sugar
6.6 protein
I think they are really tasty and healthy! I hope you will too!! ENJOY!!

    Sounds like a great one! I enjoy pancakes topped with unsweetened applesauce and yogourt. This recipe definitely looks worth trying!
Thanks
