Rejoicing in Recipes: Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Pancakes

I found this recipe last week and made them. They were delicious. I plan to make more this afternoon to freeze for this week's breakfasts. I found the recipe on www.moneysavingmom.com. I really enjoy her blog; she is a Christian as well, so she does post often about spiritual things in relation to everyday life. I appreciate that because sometimes I feel like the women that "do it all" just don't see it like I do and having a Christian woman/mom post about her journey is helpful.

Anyway, here's the recipe:

Whole-Wheat Chocolate Chip Pancakes

2 cups whole-wheat flour (we use freshly-ground flour)
2 tablespoons turbinado (or sugar)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 beaten eggs
2 cups milk, buttermilk or sour milk*
4 tablespoons melted butter (you can also use oil or coconut oil, but we prefer butter)
1/3 cup chocolate chips
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda in a bowl. Combine the eggs, milk and melted butter in a separate bowl.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add egg mixture and chocolate chips. Stir until just moistened.
Cook on a greased pancake griddle. Serve immediately or cool and freeze.
To freeze: Lay cooked and cooled pancakes on a baking sheet and stick in the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour (until frozen). Remove from pan and place in airtight freezer bags or containers.
To thaw: Take desired number of pancakes out of freezer bags and heat one to two at a time in the microwave for one to two minutes. Or, place on a baking sheet and cook in a 350-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately.

Like I said, these were delicious. And they appear to be fairly healthy as well, which is always a nice bonus. I reheated them using the oven and they were great. Today, I just reheated Addy's in the microwave and they didn't get too hard or anything, but I only did one in there for 30 seconds and that was plenty to heat it up.

This photo is of ours ready to go into the freezer. I know, they don't look that pretty and yes a couple cooked for a little too long, but they still tasted great! :)

Enjoy!!
