Day 48: Brown Rice and Honey Pancakes

17 February 2010 134 views 5 Comments

Wondering what this rice and bean thing is all about? Go here to read about my challenge.

This recipe is adapted from one I found in the Weight Watchers Momentum Cookbook.

Brown Rice and Honey Pancakes

  • 1/2 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 TBSP honey
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 3 TBSP wheat germ
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 cup egg substitute, or 1 egg

Combine rice, milk, and honey in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a bowl and let cool about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together flour, wheat germ, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir in lukewarm rice mixture and egg. Cook batter on a hot griddle.

Review: These don’t cook up as nicely as traditional pancakes, and they stick quite a bit, so make sure you have lots of cooking spray available. Even though they didn’t look too great, I thought they had a great flavor. I thought the rice added an almost nutty texture, which I liked, but my husband didn’t. We served these pancakes with fresh fruit and a drizzle of syrup. It only made about 6 pancakes so I’ll definitely double the recipe next time. Good use of leftover rice.

    You inspire me, Pam. Tonight I made chicken and rice, the easy stand-by with Cream of Chicken soup. It was good. I love to see all your good coupon deals and pics of groceries.
