Whole-Wheat Pancakes


One of the pleasures of being on vacation is trying new foods. One of the unexpected treasures from a trip to Maine last summer were the Whole-Wheat Pancakes from Denny's. We nearly missed out, though.
We planned on eating breakfast at about 6:30 in the morning, before driving on, and Denny's WAS CLOSED! As if to taunt us, we saw the "Always Open" sign and heard the shuffle of employees inside. Mike convinced a sleepy worker to open the door after ten minutes of waiting.
Whole Wheat Pancakes
2/3 c whole wheat flour
1/3 c all-purpose flour
4 Splenda packets
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
7 oz buttermilk
1 egg white
1/4 c Egg Beaters
1 Tbsp canola oil
Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately, and then mix together. Be careful not to overmix, or the pancakes will not be as fluffy. Cook at medium-low heat on a prepared griddle. Serves 2.
