Ingredients

  • 1 cup cream of wheat cereal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cream of wheat, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes to allow the cream of wheat to soften.
  4. Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray as needed.
  7. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
