amazing blueberry pancakes

Made wholemeal blueberry pancakes today and they were DIVINE - not to mention nutritious... They kept me full for a good 5 hours after eating. I'm posting the recipe partly cuz I'm worried I'll lose it (as I did with my previous trusty recipe) and also because I feel the need to share it with the world! It is as follows...


Fluffy Wholemeal Blueberry Pancakes (makes 12 pancakes)


Dry mixture:
2 cups wholemeal flour
1/2 cup traditional rolled oats
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp sugar (I use low GI raw sugar)
1 tsp cinnamon


Wet mixture:
2 large whole eggs (room temperature is best)
2 cups no fat milk (or buttermilk)
4 tbsp unsalted melted butter
2 tsp vanilla essence


1/2-3/4 cup frozen (or fresh) blueberries


Directions:
Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
Whisk together wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
Pour wet ingredients into bowl with dry ingredients and mix together - just until combined, not smooth. Add blueberries & fold in gently. Allow mixture to rest for 5 minutes while heating up fry pan. Make sure pan is at a high temperature before making first pancake - I used spray oil but you can use butter on pan also. Cook approx 3 minutes each side & serve however you choose. 


*Pancakes are approx 200 calories each.
