Worthy of a Special Occasion

These flapjacks have a hearty texture that suits a chilly morning and makes them ideal for chunky sauce.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 pancakes)

Ingredients

  • 1  cup  all-purpose flour (about 4 1/2 ounces)
  • 2/3  cup  whole wheat flour (about 3 ounces)
  • 2  tablespoons  brown sugar
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  baking powder
  • 3/4  teaspoon  salt
  • 1 2/3  cups  2% reduced-fat milk
  • 1  tablespoon  butter, melted
  • 1  large egg, lightly beaten

Preparation

Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Combine milk, butter, and egg; add milk mixture to flour mixture, stirring until smooth.

Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto a hot nonstick griddle or nonstick skillet. Cook 2 minutes or until tops are covered with bubbles and edges look cooked. Carefully turn pancakes over; cook 2 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned.

I've spent a year searching for a perfect pancake recipe, and this is it! I loved the subtle flavor of the brown sugar, and I substituted almond milk for regular milk. It added a nice nutty flavor that made the difference between a 4 star recipe and a 5 star one.01/27/09

Made to recipe except used fat-free milk. The recommended CL bourbon-pecan sauce makes them out-of-the-ordinary.11/09/08
