Whole Wheat Berry Pancakes with Honey and Granola

pancakes

There’s something about a perfect fluffy pancake that can be heartwarming. I don’t mean going out to get some, because honestly, they’re so simple to make that paying $10 for pancakes just makes me cringe. So every now and again, when I’m in the mood, I’ll put together a little something different for a delicious breakfast treat.
I had pancakes like these in Seattle, over 2 years ago, in Capitol Hill at Glow . They were delicious and I remembered that particular set of flavors was really just wonderful, so one Saturday morning I decided to make my own rendition. Here’s what ended up coming out. I thought they were delicious I hope you do as well.

Whole Wheat Berry Pancakes with Honey and Granola
1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 ¼ cup milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon flax seeds
1 cup mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, and/or raspberries)
Honey for drizzling
½ cup granola or 1 plain or honey granola bar, smashed
Optional powder sugar

Sift together all dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder) and put together in a medium bowl.
In another bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, egg and milk together.
Slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet and whisk together.
Fold in berries and flax seeds.
Heat a medium-sized skillet and using non-stick spray heat over medium heat.
Place ¼ cup of batter in the pan, making one to two pancakes at a time. Be careful not to overcrowd each pancake.
Flip pancakes over when bubbles are around the sides of the pancake.
Finish cooking the other side and serve warm with crumbled granola, a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
