Did I mention they’re SO damn good with a drizzle of pure maple syrup (or Homemade Maple Syrup!) and fresh fruit?  No?  Well, they are.  And you need to try it.

If your morning has been particularly rough (like starting the coffee maker and forgetting to put water in the machine *rolls eyes*), then you need to make these pancakes ASAP.

And maybe make them a bit more decadent to help compensate for a not-so-smooth morning.

A pat (or two) of organic butter?  Sure thing.

A healthy (or excessive) amount of natural whipped cream.  Absolutely.

A sprinkle (downpour?) of mini chocolate chips?  Hell yeah.

Weekend forecast:  a batch of these Whole Wheat Pancakes with a chance of (maple syrup) drizzle.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, baking powder, sweetener, and salt.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg, egg white, and vanilla extract.  Add the dry ingredients and fold together.  Do not overmix, otherwise the pancakes will turn out tough and dry.
