Description

This recipe is from Cooking Light so I had a feeling it would be awesome. It was! They’re light, flavorful, easy to make, and they’re healthy to boot—go make ‘em.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup Low Fat Buttermilk (Substitution Included)
  • 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
  • 1  Large Egg
  • 1  Large Egg White
  • ¾ cups All-purpose Flour
  • ¾ cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1-½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Salt

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk (see note below), canola oil, egg and egg white; set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients; add the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth.

Preheat a griddle and spray with nonstick cooking spray over medium heat. Ladle about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle. When edges are set and tiny bubbles start to appear, flip and cook on second side until done.

Note: To make homemade buttermilk, combine 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice plus enough milk to equal 1 1/2 cups liquid total. Stir and rest for 5-10 minutes until the milk begins to curdle and thicken slightly.
