Pancakes for breakfast anyone?

Last Monday at preschool one of the mom's made pancakes with chocolate chips for snack. Aly was so excited and has been begging me ever since to make the same thing. Of course since I am on such a whole wheat kick I had to look up a recipe to make a healthier version.











Our friend Terry gave us the airplane and train shapes to make pancakes with for Christmas. Aly was really excited and chose the train. We gave KK the airplane although she wouldn't even try a bite. I made regular pancakes for me, hubby didn't want any because he doesn't like to eat carbs.




Aly loved her pancake and ate the whole thing! I made mine with strawberries and whipped cream. It was so good I had a second one!
Here is the recipe if you are interested in making them:
Whole Wheat Pancakes
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, well beaten
2 cups of milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Stir together dry ingredients. Add eggs, milk, and oil. Stir until dry ingredients are moistened (batter may be lumpy). Add chocolate chips. Cook on preheated griddle or frying pan until bubbles form and edges start to dry. Flip and cook until lightly browned.
