Just as easy to make as pancakes, but heartier and healthier. This Hearty Pancake Mash is the perfect cold weather breakfast that will leave you satisfied for hours.
Happy Wednesday – we’re halfway there! While most weeks, I’m looking forward to every day, excited about the opportunities ahead, I’ve honestly been struggling this week. I’ve felt more stress and anxiety than normal. I still cannot tell if this is a good thing or not – I typically feel a lot of pressure and resistance just prior to something big coming my way –, but I do know that I needed some healthy comfort food to make me feel extra cozy. And yesterday morning, this delicious Hearty Pancake Mash hit the spot!
This recipe was originally a pancake recipe from Ray’s mother. It was delicious, but I decided that the texture of a traditional pancake just wasn’t calling my name. So I essentially made her original pancake recipe, then mashed it all up into one full jumble.
In terms of substitutes, I decided to use coconut flour instead of the traditional and whole wheat flour that are mentioned below. This made the texture a little bit drier, but equally as delicious with a light hint of coconut added in. I also sized this down quite a bit, since I was just making this for me. Let me know if you make any adjustments to fit this within your diet.
Hearty Pancake Mash
Prep time: 10 minutes; Total time: 30 minutes
Serves: 6 adults
Dry Ingredients
-
10 cups flour
-
3 cups whole wheat flour
-
3 cups crushed corn flakes or granola
-
1/4 cup sugar
-
5 teaspoons baking powder
-
1 tablespoon baking soda
-
2 teaspoons salt
- Optional: 3 cups old fashioned oatmeal
Other Ingredients
-
1 egg
-
1 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
-
In a medium sized bowl, mix all dry ingredients until well combined.
-
In a separate, medium sized bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the dry mixture with the egg and milk. Stir until the entire mixture is combined.

Spray the base of a skillet with baking spray. Pour around 1/5 of the mixture into the base of the skillet. Once the bottom is close to a golden brown, flip the pancake. Once both side are fully cooked, remove from heat and move on to the next pancake until the entire mixture is done.
-
Optional, mash the pancake into mush while in the skillet and top with raspberries and syrup. Enjoy!
