Any-Grain Wholemeal Pancakes

We love pancakes but find they don’t offer much in the way of substance. Eat a stack for breakfast and you’ll be hungry not long afterwards. Enter Any...-Grain Wholemeal Pancakes. Stir any (yes any!) whole grain through the batter to add flavour, texture and nutrition. Quinoa makes a particularly good addition, its smaller granules allow the pancakes to maintain a light and fluffy texture, and it’s protein content means these will keep you going for longer than traditional pancakes. Other grains that work well include bulgur, freekeh and barley. If you use a large grain give them a rough chop with a knife to achieve a finer texture, which yields a fluffy pancake.

Cook some extra grains with your dinner one evening and save it for these, cook some especially for these pancakes, or buy a pre-cooked pouch.
