Pancakes and Waffles
12 Servings
The aroma and taste of homemade pancakes or waffles is irresistible! The batter in this recipe makes feathery light pancakes, or light and crispy golden waffles. You'll definitely want to make these for a breakfast or brunch with friends or family, or on that free weekend morning.
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1-1/4 cups milk
1-1/2 cups unbleached white flour
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
FOR MEDALLION-SIZED BLUEBERRY PANCAKES:
1 pint blueberries, washed
FRESH FRUIT COMPOTE FOR PLAIN PANCAKES:
1 pint strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced in half
1 pint blueberries, washed
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
WAFFLE TOPPING:
(Per Serving)
1/2 banana, sliced
1/4 cup walnuts
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
Instructions:
Crack the eggs, letting the whites fall into a clean, dry, mixing bowl and dropping the yolks into a separate bowl. Beat the whites with a mixer, on high speed, or whip with a balloon whisk for about 2 minutes until the egg whites become fluffy and then firm. Be careful not to overmix, or they will flatten out. Mix the egg yolks with a fork. Add the orange juice and vanilla and whisk everything together until it becomes foamy. Add the milk, barely stirring. Place the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until everything is thoroughly blended. Slowly stir the dry ingredients into the egg-yolk mixture and continue to mix until all the dry ingredients are wet and there are no clumps of flour. Slowly fold in the egg whites and stir only once or twice.
Prepare the fruit compote by mixing all the ingredients together until all the fruit is completely coated with syrup.
To make medallion-sized blueberry pancakes: Coat the bottom of a flat griddle or large frying pan with 1/4 teaspoon butter or grapeseed oil and set it over medium heat for about 1 minute. Drop 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot grill, placing them far enough apart so the pancakes don't touch. Distribute 1 tablespoon (about 5) of blueberries on top of each pancake, letting the berries sink into the batter. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, in about 2 minutes, flip the pancakes over. Cook the side for 3 minutes. Transfer pancakes to a hot platter and stack them to keep them warm. Continue cooking the pancakes until all the batter is used up. (You do not need to add more butter to the pan.) Serve immediately. Makes 30 medallion-sized pancakes.
To make regular sized plain pancakes: Coat the bottom of a flat griddle with 1/4 teaspoon butter and set it over medium heat for about 1 minute. Pour 3 tablespoons of batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles start to form on top of each pancake. Turn them over and cook for about 2 minutes more. Transfer the pancakes to a hot platter and stack them to keep them warm. (No butter is needed after the first set of pancakes.)
When all the batter is used up, top each 3 pancakes with 3 tablespoons of the fruit compote. Makes 12 regular sized pancakes.)
To make waffles: Preheat the waffle iron until the signal comes on indicating it is ready. Pour enough of the batter evenly over the iron to fill it )usually about 1/2 cup) and let the batter cook until the edges are golden brown. Turn out onto a warm palte and top with the banana, chopped walnuts, and maple syrup.

If you haven't eaten mango, this is an easy way to introduce this delicious fruit into your diet. Pick a ripe mango that feels firm and smells good.

Ingredients:
1 ripe mango
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
Instructions:
Peel the mango and cut the ripe portion of the fruit into pieces (The portion around the stone will be hard.). Put the mango in a blender or food processor with the yogurt. Blend until smooth.

Potato Pancakes
8 pancakes
I have made these at the house of a friend who gives a party featuring potato pancakes every year. He loves making them and gets really creative, tossing in hot sauce or different herbs. You can be as creative as you like with yours. Mine are a simple version, and I like to serve them with fresh applesauce.
Ingredients:
3 large Idaho or Yukon potatoes (about 2 pounds)
1 large sweet onion
1 cup matzo meal, medium grain
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
1/4 cup olive oil
GARNISH:
Low-fat sour cream
Fresh
applesauce
Instructions:
1. Peel and grate the potatoes and onion by hand or in a food processor and put them in a large bowl. (If you grate the potatoes ahead of time, make sure to soak them in water to keep them from turning color, then drain and squeeze when ready to use.)
2. Add the matzo meal and the egg. Sprinkle in the salt and blend everything together until the onions and potatoes are coated with the egg and matzo meal. Let stand for 5 minutes.
3. With clean hands, roll a ball of dough just big enough to fit into the palm of your hand, and flatten it out with your palms to make a round cake. Repeat the process until you have used up all the batter.
4. Set a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Lay 4 pancakes in the hot oil and cook for 1 minute on each side, until they turn golden brown. Transfer the pancakes to a paper towel to soak up any excess oil. Repeat, adding more olive oil to the pan, until all pancakes are cooked. Serve with sour cream and a side of fresh applesauce.

Sweet Potato Pancakes with Tofu
These are a delicious twist on traditional potato pancakes, and they include all the healthful goodness that tofu—a secret ingredient—provides. Serve them with poached eggs for brunch.
1 cup (8 oz/227 g) cooked sweet potato, mashed
4 ounces (113 g) tofu
2/3 cup (1 1/3 oz/38 g) fresh breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon (15 ml) onion, minced A few dashes curry powder
1/4 teaspoon (1.3 ml) salt
2 tablespoons (101/4 oz/284 g) unbleached flour, spread on a saucer
2 tablespoons (1 fl oz/30 ml) oil
Using a fork, mix all the ingredients, except the flour and oil, in a small bowl. Mash the tofu as you mix and blend. Form the mix into 4 thin patties. Dip each side of each patty in the flour. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet, and fry the pancakes over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes on each side. The pancakes should be golden brown and crusty on the outside, soft and rich on the inside.
