Rice Pancakes

Delicious Rice Pancakes

These simple, delicious, and healthy pancakes are a favorite multi-generational family treat at our house. When cooking rice for dinner, I double the amount so I have plenty for the main ingredient the following morning. Sometimes I even quadruple the amount and double the recipe, as the pancakes freeze well and can be quickly thawed for an extra special breakfast.

Servings: 6  Preparation time: 30 minutes

Ingredients
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cup cooked rice
(I prefer brown rice.)
3 tablespoons wheat germ
1/4 teaspoon salt
(I prefer Lite salt)
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice 
(Optional - Trader Joe's is especially good.)

​

 Instructions
1. In medium-sized bowl, beat eggs slightly
​2. Stir in rice, wheat germ, salt, and pumpkin pie spice
3. Heat griddle to 325 degrees.
4. Scoop mixture with a 1/4 measuring cup and drop onto the griddle. Flatten with the bottom of the measuring cup to create 3" diameter pancakes.
5. When the cakes have browned on one side, turn over and cook until browned on the other side.
Serve with syrup, honey, jam, or a mixture of half applesauce and half plain yogurt. Add the pumpkin pie spice to the mixture if you like.

I hope you enjoy this dish. Let me know if you've tried it and how it turned out.

Good cooking to you,
