Ingredients:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup buckwheat flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 cups soy milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup oil

Directions:

Mix together dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl beat the eggs and add oil and soy milk. Then add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir just enough to get rid of most of the lumps.

Pour a large spoonful per pancake onto a greased griddle or skillet.

Cook until pancakes get bubbles on top and edges are slightly browned, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Then flip and cook another 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown.

Serve with creamed honey and a bowl of fresh fruit.

Egg in a Nest

Posted in Breakfast, Children's Favorites, eggs on September 16th, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

When I’d make this for my stepchildren when they were smaller, I called it Egg in a Hole but…same thing!  It’s a fun way to jazz up breakfast for the kids before school.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 slice bread (whole wheat is healthiest!)
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 1 egg
  • salt and pepper (optional)

 

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Cut a hole in the middle of the bread (a small glass or cookie cutter works great!).
  2. Heat butter in small non-stick skillet.
  3. Place the bread with hole slice in the butter, brown and turn.
  4. Crack the egg in the hole in your bread and cook.  Turn with spatula until egg is cooked the way you like it.

Classic Belgian Waffles

Posted in Breakfast on July 10th, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

INGREDIENTS:

 

  • 2 cups cake flour (can use regular all-purpose flour or do half and half and it tastes good)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups milk
  • non-stick cooking spray

 

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In one medium bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a second bowl use the wooden spoon to beat together the egg yolks and sugar until sugar is completely dissolved and eggs have turned a pale yellow (takes a little work – about 3 minutes).
  4. Add the vanilla extract, melted butter, and milk to the eggs and whisk to combine.
  5. Combine the egg-milk mixture with the flour mixture and whisk just until blended. Do not over mix.
  6. In third bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, about 1 minute.
  7. Using the rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the waffle batter. Do not overmix!
  8. Coat the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray and pour enough batter in iron to just cover waffle grid.
  9. Close and cook as per manufacturer’s instructions until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  10. Serve immediately.

Freeze the leftovers and reheat them in the toaster for another day! 

Cook Time:  3 min

Serves:  8 to 10 (4 by 4-inch) waffles
