I did grew up with pancakes but we did have some sort of another kind of pancakes in my house and I remembered my mum would use plain flour , some eggs and sugar and water in her own version of pancake back in my hometown.....I love to eat pancakes and I had come across this particular recipe from a health book about fiber and how it can be added into the recipes which we use to cook or bake food.
I managed to copy this great recipe down which uses whole wheat flour.....it tastes great and it is also good for you...
So, I would like to share this recipe with all of you who are watching those fiber intake and health too....enjoy making these pancakes and savouring them too....
