Multigrain pancakes

The first time I had pancakes was at IHOP :). I was trying to look for low fat or high fiber pancakes in their menus, but did not find many options. We came across the multigrain pancake flour at Winco and decided to give it a try. There are dozens of recipes out there and I was not sure which one to follow, so went with a basic recipe at vahrevah.com, and substituted the all purpose flour with multigrain pancake mix. Hot pancakes with bananas and honey drizzled over form the perfect brunch for a rainy Sunday.




Ingredients:
  1. 1 cup--Multigrain pancake flour
  2. 1 tsp-baking powder
  3. 1 cup-milk
  4. a pinch of salt
  5. 1 egg
  6. 2 tbsp-oil
  7. 2 tsp-sugar
Method:
  1. In a bowl, add the flour, salt, baking powder.
  2. In another bowl add egg yolk, sugar, milk and mix well.
  3. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and mix well till you get a pouring consistency. If required add more milk and oil.
  4. Now take egg white and beat till it forms soft peaks and add this mixture to egg and flour mixture using the folding method.
  5. Heat the tava and pour a ladle full of batter on the pan
  6. When the bubbles show up on the pancake and is browned on the other side, flip the pancake
  7. Resist the urge to press down on the pancake after flipping it :)--Takes about a minute or so to cook
  8. Yields 6 medium sized pancakes
