Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup water or milk
- 1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more for cooking the pancakes
- 1 large egg (optional)
- 1 cup whole wheat pancake and waffle mix
- 1/4 pound cherries, pitted and cut into quarters (about 2/3 cup)
Method
In a small bowl, whisk together water or milk, oil and egg (if using).
In a larger bowl, stir liquid mixture into pancake mix (you'll have about 1 cup batter).
Stir in cherries until evenly distributed. If making a larger batch, add 2/3 cup cherries for each additional cup of batter.
Oil a cast-iron griddle or large nonstick skillet with canola oil and heat over medium heat until hot.
Working in batches, ladle 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle and cook about 2 minutes or until bottoms are golden.
Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, until pancakes are cooked through.
