WW Silver Dollar Fruity Pancakes

This morning the bug asked for pancakes. This is a meal I have been avoiding since starting Weight Watchers, but I decided it was time to work out a recipe we could all live with rather than deny her a favorite weekend treat. Here's what I came up with...

Silver Dollar Fruity Pancakes - makes 5 servings
3 points+ per serving, each serving = 7 pancakes

Ingredients
3/4 cup of skim milk
2 tbsp white vinegar
1/2 cup unbleached white flour
1/2 whole wheat white flour
1 tbsp white sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1 tbsp light butter, melted (I used Balade from Trader Joe's)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Assorted thinly sliced fruits (bananas, peaches, apples, etc) or berries

Directions
  1. Add vinegar to milk and allow to sit for at least 5 minutes so that the milk "sours" (gives the effect of buttermilk in the recipe)
  2. Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine
  3. Combine all wet ingredients in the measuring cup with the milk and whisk to combine
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated
  5. Drop level tablespoons of batter on a hot griddle or pan that has been coated with cooking spray
  6. Add fruit to each pancake as it cooks
  7. Flip each pancake after ~2 minutes and cook an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side
  8. Enjoy with maple syrup (extra points) or more fresh fruit

Dry Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
Yummy Batter
Frozen Raspberries, Frozen blueberries, & Banana Slices
On the Griddle
Breakfast is Served!
(only 6 pancakes are shown, but a serving is 7 - I couldn't help eating one fresh off the pan)
