The best and healthier Pancakes : Whole wheat Blueberry Pancake with soy milk

This is by far the most healthiest pancake recipe using whole wheat flour and unsweetened soy milk. Although it sounds bland, it tastes actually really good !! As you can see, I don't put any refined sugar in the ingredients. I use maple syrup (real maple syrup) instead. 

Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancake w/ soy milk

( Makes 8 large pancakes)
Ingredients
  1. Organic Whole wheat flour: 2 cups
  2. Baking powder: 1teaspoon
  3. Baking soda: 1/2 teaspoon
  4. Fine grain sea salt: 1/2 teaspoon
  5. Egg (organic): 2 large
  6. Unsweetened soy milk: 2 cups
  7. Unsalted butter: 2 tablespoons melted
  8. Maple syrup (organic, grade B): 2 tablespoons
  9. Organic Blueberry (frozen or fresh): 1/2 cups
    Direction:
    1. Melt butter. Use microwave (for convenience) for 20+ sec till butter just melt.
    2. In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt). Mix well.
    3. In a separate bowl combine eggs, soy milk, melted butter, and maple syrup. Mix till all ingredients are well combined.
    4. Add wet mixture into dry mixture. Use spatula combine the mixture like slicing the batter. Don't mix too much. Flour doesn't need to be completely mixed.
    5. Heat the griddle to medium high. Pour batter and equally divided blueberry on top and cook till bottom is golden, edge of the pancake is cooked and till the bubble shows up on the top side batter. Flip the pancake and cook the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
    * Using pancake griddle makes it perfectly even heated pancake. If you don't have it, use non- stick coated pan. Then you don't need to worry about putting extra butter or other grease on the pan to cook. The batter already contains butter in it. Butter is saturated fat. It's not good to consume much.

    * Eat with Maple syrup.My favorite - GRADE B ORGANIC. More amber flavor and nutrition.

    My Shopping List: Organic Whole wheat flour, Grade B organic maple syrup, 365 Organic Unsweetened Soymilk
