Sweet Whole Wheat Pancakes

Submitted by CoffeeB

"The added sugar (I use Splenda) to this batter is wonderful when adding blueberries to the mix. Also, the use of buttermilk makes them light and fluffy."

Impeccable way to start the day! A taste sweet pancake that pillows the whole blueberries so well that when you cut into the pancake blueberry squirts out onto your plate. Made as written using the Splenda option and am looking forward to try the optional fruit option. Thanks so much for the post.

Wonderful, delicate, flavorful pancakes! I made these for DS & DH, but I snagged a bite to taste it. They were excellent--much better than our usual pancake recipe, and ever so much healthier! I used 3/4 cup all-purpose flour plus 1 tsp baking powder, nonfat milk, and nonfat buttermilk. I was concerned that 1 cup of blueberries wouldn't be enough for all those pancakes (I got 13 large pancakes), but it was exactly the right amount, with about 6-8 berries per pancake. Thanks so much for sharing, CoffeeB! Made for Everyday is a Holiday tag game.

Made great fluffy, filling pancakes. I didn't have self-rising flour so I used all-purpose flour and added a tsp. of baking powder. These were terrific.

Lovely fluffy pancakes. I used 1 tbsp of Splenda, no sugar added syrup and skim milk and soured (with lemon) skim for the buttermilk. As dh was having breakfast with me I skipped the added fruit and just added some cinnamon because he doesn't want "chunks" of any kind in his pancakes. They are very flavorful, quick to make up and the recipe works beautifully. Made for Photo Tag.
