Flapjacks Hearty Enough for a Lumberjack

The Yummiest and Scrumptious Pancakes (Flapjacks) You Have ever had!

So, I haven’t updated in  awhile.

I won’t make any excuses,

Just say that I’m sorry,

And that I should be back in the kitchen and baking with a frenzy now.

This morning I made pancakes

And they were delicious,

And very filling (I had four, everyone else was unable to eat more than three)

Anywho

These are packed with protein and heart-healthyness and it’s a large enough batch for you to freeze them and then have them for a quick breakfast during the week.

And

They are such a breeze to make!

Seriously, this is the lineup of ingredients:

Nothing weird,

Nothing hard to find,

If you don’t have the whole wheat pastry flour, do half whole wheat flour and half all purpose flour. Or, you can just use all purpose flour, it really doesn’t matter.

Firstly, mix

6 c. of your favorite milk substitute

(I recently discovered Hazelnut milk and boy oh boy is it yummy!)

And

2 c. applesauce

(I use the cinnamon kind, but you could use the “no added” sugar kind to be more healthful)

Then, mix your dry ingredients

8 c. whole wheat pastry flour

8 tbs. baking powder

4 tsps. Salt

About 2-3 c. assorted chopped nuts (I used pecans, walnuts, and almond slivers)

About 2 c. raisins (or other dried fruit)

I also added quite a bit of flaxseed meal,

but that’s because it’s my hobby to add flaxseeds to anything and everything I can

Then, add in the wet ingredients, and stir stir stir!

If it’s unbearably thick, add more applesauce.

Pour about ¼ c or ½ c of the batter onto a heated and oiled skillet, and then sprinkle about a teaspoon of brown sugar on the top of each pancake and let it melt a little bit until you’re ready to flip them

Judge their doneness when little bubble start to form close to the middle of the pancake and the bottom edges seem firm. Then flip.

If the pancakes are too thick and gooey for your liking, thin the batter with more applesauce.

Place in a huge pile and serve!

You don’t really even need anything to top them with, but I put applesauce on mine and it was yummy yummy

Mmmmmmh, don’t they look good?
