Guest guest Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 I went ahead and tried the following this morning. My goal was simply to make an easy storable breakfast that would at least be edible...but it turned out to be pretty tasty. Here it is: Mega-Pancakes: 150g whole wheat flour 100g wheat bran 2 egg whites 2 whole eggs 5/8th cup soy protein powder (or substitute) 4 tbsp flax meal 200g raspberries (or substitute) 4 tbsp nutritional yeast 2 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt Hefty amount of cinnamon sprinkled in dough 2.5 tbsp sucaryl calorie free sugar 1 2/3 cup water (can be modified to desired consistency) Yields 16 pancakes (all depending on how big you make them). 1 serving= 4 pancakes 420 calories 2g omega-3 22g fiber 39g protein 4 servings= 16 pancakes 1680 calories 8g omega-3 88g fiber 156g protein Top with raspberries, fake sugar, cinnamon. (Possible substitutions: include more wheat bran, change whole wheat flour for an alternative, change soy protein powder to another protein powder, change raspberries to strawberries, blueberries or blackberries, change amount of water, put sweetener of choice.) The only " unhealthy " ingredient is whole wheat flour. I'm thinking of eating this (and its variations) fairly often. Good idea? Any thoughts? - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 thanks for the recipe. Doug Younkin - if you're out there somewhere how about adding to the recipe file??? I use whole wheat flour all the time. on 6/13/2003 9:45 AM, paultheo2000 at paultheo2000@... wrote: > The only " unhealthy " ingredient is whole wheat flour.

I'm thinking of > eating this (and its variations) fairly often. Good idea? Any thoughts? , Barley flour (I just got some from Bob's Red Mill) has a lower GI than wheat and has beta glucans. Could also try oat flour or rye flour. Substitute part of the flour with buckwheat flour (hey, buckwheat pancakes!). I recently read a lot about barley at http://eot.com/~nuworld/index.html (see the free online book about barley and it's history). I'm not sure about the special barley they are selling, whether it is worth it or how valid the claims are, but there seems to be a lot of good info in general about barley. Francesca, I will add the recipe Monday at work where I can do it easiest. Doug Younkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 15, 2003 Report Share Posted June 15, 2003 Doug, Rye flour does appear to have less calories and more fiber than whole wheat flour, so if the taste is suitable it will make for an excellent substitution. Thanks for the suggestion! - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make mine by using whole meal self raising flour and only use the egg whites and gently fold them through at the end. they become lighter an fluffier ( is that a word). you may need to adjust the protein if you drop the yolks?

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 There is nothing “unhealthy” about whole wheat flour. To the contrary, see our files about the benefits of whole grains.
