Blender Whole Wheat Pancakes-Whole Wheat Food Storage Recipes
Posted on February 20th, 2008 by Crystal-Everyday Food Storage
For those of you on the “Whole Grain” band wagon, you may be overspending on popular pancake mixes. If you don’t have a wheat grinder and are constantly perplexed looking at those whole kernels of wheat, do I have the recipe for you to try! This is the most simple, easiest to clean up, and DELICIOUS pancake recipe I’ve ever eaten. Give it a try…(If you really want to get handy you can even…dare I say it…substitute powdered milk for the milk)
Blender Wheat Pancakes
1 Cup Milk (translation for powdered milk is 3 T. Milk and 1 C. Water)
1 Cup Wheat Kernels, whole & uncooked
2 Eggs (2 T. powdered eggs 1/4 C. Water)
2 tsp Baking Powder
1 1/2 tsp Salt
2 Tbs. Oil
2 Tbs. Honey or Sugar
Put milk and wheat kernels in blender.
Blend on highest speed for 4 or 5 minutes or until batter is smooth.
Add eggs, oil, baking powder, salt and honey or sugar to above batter.
Blend on low.
Pour out batter into pancakes from the actual blender jar (only one thing to wash!) onto a hot greased or Pam prepared griddle or large frying pan.
Cook; flipping pancakes when bubbles pop and create holes.
Food Storage Items Used: 5.

I just had a funny experience with your pancake recipe.
I was talking to a lady who was getting rid of her 40 year old wheat. In fact she had a man coming to pick it up for animal feed very soon.
I asked why she was getting rid of it. She said she thought it must be bad after all these years and besides she didn’t make bread.
I just seen your pancake recipe so told her there was an easy way she
could taste test her old wheat without making bread. I e-mailed the recipe to her.
A few hours later, she called all excited! She had made up the pancake recipe and cooked two, not wanting to waste her time cooking more if it was nasty. They tasted delicious! She wanted me to know that her frying pan was still hot and she was about to cook up the rest. After she hung
up from me, she was also going to call the animal feed man and tell him she had changed her mind! She was keeping her wheat! She reasoned even though she could not make bread, she could make the pancakes and use them for sandwiches if necessary!
So I just wanted you to know that the pancakes turn out to be a great way to taste-test old wheat!

For those who find the texture of these pancakes a little rubbery or a little grainy, try this modified assembly technique:
Grind wheat alone in blender at high speed until flour-like in consistency. Turn speed to low and add remaining dry ingredients (including any powdered egg or milk if you are using those rather than fresh). Turn off blender. Add all liquid ingredients and blend on low just to combine. You may need to stop your blender to scrape down the sides once and then finish blending. Make pancakes at once.
I just did this and the pancakes turned out delicate and fluffy, a much more typical pancake texture. One thing I noticed is that there are a lot of eggs in these pancakes. I might try reducing that if the pancakes are intended to be a side dish rather than the main course. I might also try powdered whey (not powdered whey protein!) rather than powdered milk to give these more of a buttermilk pancake taste, but the taste is excellent as is.

Holy cow! These were fantastic! We had them for dinner last night - as waffles instead - and they get crispy which is just the way I love them! Thanks so much - because these were fantastic and left no mess!

I made this recipe this morning for the first time, and it was a hit with all 5 of my kids. I would have loved to know the estimated number of pancakes or servings that come from the recipe though. Like I said I have 5 kids, ages 6-14, and this was not nearly enough pancakes for them, let alone for the whole family. Next time I will double it. Hope my blender can handle it! Thanks for the recipe.

So delicious! My kids gobble them up. I have learned that the batter warms up in the blender so if you want to add something like chocolate chips without having them melt you need to wait until the batter cools.
