By Bostoncook

Good Food Book (Jane Brody)

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup oats
• 1/4 cup wheat germ
• 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds or finely chopped walnuts, I omitted
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon cloves
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1/2 banana, mashed
• 1 apple, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons raisins
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest, optional
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine flour-nutmeg.

2. Colmbine milk-oil; stir in banana-vanilla. Combine with dry ingredients, mixing just to blend. Batter will be thick.

3. Cook on lightly greased griddle, using about 3 tbsp per pancake.

Notes: These were really very good. Nice and hearty with banana, apple, raisins, wheat germ. Left out the nuts because of Macy. Served with bacon and fresh fruit.
