{Multigrain Pancakes}

I am more of a Waffle kinda girl. But I like that these are on the healthy side, and I am always looking for a good breakfast recipe for our family. And I just feel better about knowing what ingredients go into my food because I know it's a lot easier to just use the boxed mix from the store :)
















4 tsp juice from 1 lemon
2 cups whole milk
1 1/4 cups muesli (healthy cereal) plus 3 Tbs
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
2 Tbs light brown sugar
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
3 Tbs butter, melted and cooled
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Vegetable oil

Mix the milk and lemon juice together, set aside to thicken
Process 1 1/4 cups of the muesli in a good processor until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the remaining 3 Tbs unground muesli, the flours, brown sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt. Whisk to combine. Whisk the eggs, melted butter and vanilla with the milk until combined. Make a well in the senter of the dry ingredients in the bowl, pour in the milk mixture and whisk very gently until just combined (its okay to have lumps) do not over mix.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1 tsp oil to coat the bottom. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto 3 spots in the skillet. Cook the batter until small bubbles begin to appear, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and do the same on the other side. Serve immediately.
