Make a special breakfast for Conference morning....



Mmmmmm, homemade pancakes....warm and delicious on a frosty morning. Since we all have some "together time" on the morning of Conference, consider making the following for your family. You can be a hero in a heartbeat! And, you will be using staples form your Food Storage as well!!!!

Whole Wheat Blender Pancakes (http://www.dvo.com/recipes_archive/Whole_Wheat_Blender_Pancakes.html)

1 cup golden whole wheat

1 1/2 cups milk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 egg

3 teaspoons baking powder

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon salt

Blend 1 cup of milk with wheat for 2-3 minutes add rest of milk and blend for another 2-3 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend. Cook on a hot skillet until done. Makes 5 servings. (LRH found that she had to add a little extra flour to thicken this mix, also blend much longer than it states to ensure the wheat berries are really finely ground)

And, you always need delicious syrup to go with it. Here is a recipe to try!
