Instead 1 1/4 cups flour I use:
2/3 cup flour
1/3 cup corn meal
1/4 cup wheat germ, or wheat germ and ground flax mixed (the flax is new, no one noticed)
1 tb oil, no butter.
We have tried many of the NYT pancake recipes and continue to return to these. They are easy, delicious and just as good plain as they are with fruit or chocolate chips. I often use whole wheat flour and add vanilla extract. Batter benefits from sitting for 15-20 minutes. Made for Christmas breakfast!🎄
I remember reading this piece in 2002 and love it to this day. Both the delicious pancakes and the evocative writing. Enjoy.
I sub 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour for all purpose. To reduce fat I use 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Or just 2 butter.
