Whole Wheat Blender Waffles/Pancakes

Wheat Berries


I have made these twice already and they are delicious! In case you are wondering what "whole wheat berries" are... they are just wheat kernels that haven't been ground into flour yet. I don't know why they call them berries. :)

Whole Wheat Blender Waffles (or pancakes*)
Submitted by Erin from The Sister's Cafe

Makes 12 - 4" pancakes

1 c. plus 1 Tb whole wheat berries
1 c. milk
2 eggs
4 Tb oil
2 Tb sugar (or honey)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla - my addition

Blend wheat berries and milk on high for 4-5 minutes, until batter is smooth. Add remaining ingredients and blend on low for a minute, or until incorporated. Cook on hot waffle iron. (Stir batter before pouring into waffle iron, because the heavier wheat particles will settle at the bottom.) Makes about 10 waffles.

*To make pancakes instead of waffles, use 1 c. wheat berries and 2 Tb oil.
