“Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.”— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Preheat your pan or griddle. Get it ready now. We’ll be throwing batter on there in no time.
2 c. whole wheat flour
3 tbsp. brown sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 cups milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
6 tbsp. unsweetened applesauce
Mix the dry first. Mix the wet in a bigger, separate bowl. Mix the dry into the wet. It will be a little lumpy. Melt a little butter in the pan or on your griddle. That’s really a fantastic word, “griddle.” It makes me smile every time I say it. About 1/3 cup makes one decent pancake. Smaller if you’re a wimp, bigger if you have the space and something to prove.
Cook until bubbles appear on top. Flip. Wait a minute or two. It’s done. That’s it. Get out the peanut butter and strawberries.
