I whipped up this little beauty by accident today! I was trying for a whole wheat oven pancake and ended up with this creation. The thing I like about this is that it reminds me of a danish or pastry, but with a whole wheat base instead of the higher fat alternative. It's also much more substantial and filling. Serves 4.
Ingredients
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup AP flour
3 TB sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1-1/4 cup 1% milk
3 eggs
2 pears or apples (I used Red Sensation Pears)
4 tsp butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
Lemon juice as needed
Powdered sugar as needed\
Methods
1. Preheat oven to 420 degrees.
2. Combine flours, sugar, salt, milk, and eggs in bowl and whisk until blended.
3. In an ovenproof skillet add 2 tsp butter and place in oven until melted. Remove from oven and add batter to pan. Return to oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
4. In a second skillet, add remaining 2 tsp butter, fruit, lemon juice (1-2 TB to prevent browning) and brown sugar. Cook until fruit is tender and golden.
5. Once pancake is removed from oven cut slices or cut circles with cookie/biscuit cutter. Top with powdered sugar and fruit. Enjoy!
