Here is my recipe (relatively thick batter):
DRY
2 c. flour (I've used whole wheat pastry flour or unbleached all-purpose)
1/2 c. oatmeal (not instant)
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
* I combine all the dry ingredients
* heat skillet at very low heat
WET
1/2 c. pumpkin
2 T canola oil (can use less)
1/3 c. water
1 1/2 soy milk (if using rice milk use LESS - it is more 'liquidy' then soy milk; I personally prefer soy milk for baking and rice milk for drinking)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 T maple syrup (optional - I don't add)
* mix well and add to dry mixture
* do not over mix your pancakes
* plop them onto the griddle/skillet and let 'em cook away. In picture you can see that pancake turns deeper color as it cooks.
This recipe is very forgiving and you can easily modify amounts. I like pancakes that have a very bread like consistency so I like my batter thick. When I spoon it out I have to manually spread it around. Want runnier pancakes - add more liquid. I only make as many pancakes as I am going to eat and save the batter for another day. I only put Earth Balance on mine but like I said, I lack creativity and motivation.
I really am going to write up the hummus story from the Christian Science Monitor. Tomorrow maybe....
