Hi all,

I used to bake with regular white flour, but now I'm trying to avoid it and bake only with whole wheat flour. Do you have any good recipes

The King Arthur Flour company has a book called Whole Grain Baking: Delicious recipes using nutritious whole grains that has quite a few good recipes in it. For example, their 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread is the lightest whole wheat bread I've ever made.

BTW, have you experimented with White Whole Wheat Flour? It's a whole wheat flour that's made with a white wheat berry instead of red and doesn't taste as "bitter." Our local King Soopers grocery store carries it. It's a bit more expensive but it's very versatile. For example, I make my mother's sweet rolls with 50% white whole wheat and 50% all-purpose and they always turn out great.

PEANUT BUTTER PANCAKES

1 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour 2 TBS sugar 2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup fat-free milk 1/4 cup natural peanut butter (I used old-fashioned chunky*) 2 TBS olive oil 1/4 cup applesauce

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in mixing bowl. Mix remaining ingredients together separately until well combined. Pour mixture into dry ingredients and mix just until evenly moistened. Cook pancakes on lightly greased griddle in 1/4 cup measures. Cook until golden browned on both sides.

Read your peanut butter labels carefully before purchasing. Various brands incorporate surprising amounts of sugar, corn syrup, and unhealthy tropical oils. I'm a fan of "old-fashioned" type peanut butter that usually contains nothing more than peanuts and salt. from http://acmeinstantfood.blogspot.com/
