Categories: Eat-lf, Lowfat, Mcrecipe, Vegetarian, Vitell-bett
Yield: 4 Servings

1 c Whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Baking soda
1 Egg
1 c Milk OR soy milk
1/2 c Cooked brown rice
Oil; for frying

Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.

In a separate large bowl whisk the egg with the milk. Mix the dry
ingredients into the milk and stir in the rice.

Heat 1 teaspoon butter or oil in a heavy skillet. When the skillet is hot
and the butter sizzles, ladle a large spoonful of batter into it. When air
bubbles appear on the top, flip the pancakes and cook for a minute until
brown. Remove from the skillet and keep warm in the oven until all are
made.

Notes: This is Bettina's favorite breakfast surprise. If you make these
pancakes for your friends, be sure to make extra batter; they'll ask for
seconds. Usually pancakes do not provide "long burning fuel", but these do.
Serve them with pure maple syrup. >McServing: 18% cff. 182cals, 4g fat.
