Author Notes
My entire childhood started with buttered jam and honey sandwiches. Now that I have my own kids I love changing up what's for breakfast. One of their all-time favorites is pancakes that are made with pre-soaked home-made granola. It's fast, it's nutritious, delivers whole grains and pairs well with any seasonal fruits. —Comeandcookwithus
Ingredients
-
1 cup
Home-made granola
-
1 cup
Water
-
1 cup
Flour (I use GF but a mixture of 2/3 white and 1/2 whole wheat works great, too)
-
1 1/2 cups
Milk
-
1
Egg
-
1 teaspoon
Baking powder
-
1/2 teaspoon
Salt
-
1 teaspoon
Vanilla extract (optional)
-
1 tablespoon
Chia seeds (optional)
-
1 cup
Blueberries, grated apple, chopped pear (optional)
Directions
-
The night before, soak the granola in water and let stand at room temperature. My home-made granola is made of roasted rolled oats, buckwheat groats, quinoa flakes, some nuts, a little honey and flax oil.
-
Mix granola with the remaining ingredients. You will have a bulky, moist dough.
-
Heat a non-stick pan, coat with a little oil and place spoonfuls of the pancake mixture onto the hot pan. Turn after 1-2 minutes.
-
Brush with maple syrup and serve with fresh fruit
