Gingerbread Whole Wheat Pancakes and Syrup!


Oh my these are so fantastic! A fresh twist to the blender pancake and another way to use your wheat!

from everydayfoodstorage.net

1 cup milk (I, of course, use powdered)
1 cup wheat kernels, whole and uncooked
2 eggs (2T powdered eggs and 1/4 cup water)
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 Tb oil
2 Tb honey or sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ginger
Put milk and wheat in blender. If using food storage ingredients then add the wheat and 1 1/4 cup water (the water for the dry milk and dry eggs). Then blend on highest speed until smooth (this could take 5 minutes). Add the rest of your ingredients and blend on low until well mixed. Cook and serve.

Hot Homemade Buttermilk Syrup
1/2 Cup buttermilk or 1/2 Cup milk with 1/2 tsp. vinegar or lemon juice
2 Cups Sugar
1/2 Cup Butter
2 Tbs. Corn Syrup (not essential but it will help your syrup keep longer without going grainy)
2 t. baking soda
1 tsp. Vanilla (do not add until after removing from heat)

Mix ingredients in a pot and boil for 3 minutes, the sauce will turn to the caramel color towards the end of boiling. (Essential Tip: mix in a pot one size larger than you think you will need. The syrup will be frothy in the beginning and it is awful cleaning up a burnt sugary mess on your stove…trust me!)
Stir in vanilla when syrup is finished cooking.
Makes enough sauce for 2 recipes of pancakes.
