Healthy Flax and Protein Pancakes
"I started with Pancakes #78893 (Shari2) and adjusted for my needs. These pancakes have protein, no white flour and taste good! I use half wholewheat and half oat flour. The sugar can be adjusted, depending on what you plan to put on the pancakes. With 3t fruit sugar, I can eat them as they are, or with bananas or unsweetened applesauce. They do brown easily! Be sure not to use medium heat on the stove and give them time to cook through."

<p>I am living happily as a housewife in the English countryside (having grown up in rural Pennsylvania). This leaves me time to explore new recipes. I enjoy cooking and eating.<br /> <br />I love to bake, and my family likes treats, so we have cookies, muffins, and new-to-me English desserts sometimes, and I'm baking bread again.<br /> <br />My life also allows time for my other passions, reading and gardening. <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
