These are the pancakes Summer made for us on our trip back from Idaho. They are so good and very easy to make.

INGREDIENTS

* 6 eggs
* 1 cup milk
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the eggs, milk, flour and salt in a blender. Pour the butter into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish; add the batter. Bake, uncovered, at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.The batter will start to get puffy and bubbly looking. Then sprinkle confectioners sugar on top and bake for 5 more minutes.
2. Take them put of the oven and sever with syrup and whip cream or whatever you like best! They will be gone in no time.

Whole wheat, oatmeal and banana pancakes


INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com. There were lots of great reviews.I made them this morning. They turned out very well. Aaron, Hali and Colby liked them. I tried a few with blueberries and they were very yummy!!

* 1 cup uncooked rolled oats
* 1 cup whole wheat flour
* 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/4 cup brown sugar
* 2 tablespoons dry milk powder
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 egg
* 2 cups milk
* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 banana, mashed

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the rolled oats into a blender and blend until the texture resembles coarse flour. (I just put them in whole) Whisk together the blended oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, dry milk powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside.
2. Whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla. Stir in the mashed banana. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Let the batter stand for 5 minutes.
3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop 1/4 cup of batter by onto the griddle, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, about 2 minutes. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
