Cookhacker'S Whole Grain Fruit And Nut Pancakes

• 1 cup Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Grain High Fiber Hot Cereal with Flaxseed, ground
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Flax seed, ground
• 1/4 cup Walnuts, chopped (almonds can be substituted)
• 10 Dates, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)
• 1/2 cup Milk
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 tablespoon Canola or Vegetable Oil (to grease the pan)
• Blueberries, Strawberries
• 2 Large Eggs, separate whites and yolks
• 1/4 cup Golden Raisins

1. Grind the Hot Cereal for about 20-30 seconds until it reaches a flour-like consistency, then grind the flaxseed and set both aside (a coffee grinder works really well).
2. Beat the 2 egg whites for about 1-2 minutes until they form stiff peaks and set aside
3. Whisk together the milk and egg yolks in a medium bowl
4. Combine the ground cereal, baking powder, ground flaxseed, nuts, dates and raisins
5. Add the dry mixture to the milk/egg yolk mixture and stir well to combine
6. Stir in the ground cinnamon
7. Gently fold in beaten egg whites
8. If needed, stir in up to 3 tablespoons water to achieve a good pancake batter-like consistency
9. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat until a drop of water skitters across the pan. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake.
10. Cook until golden brown on both sides and serve topped with your favorite fruit (I prefer blueberries and strawberries), real maple syrup and a dollop of vanilla yogurt!
