Makes 4 to 5 Servings (about 14 pancakes)

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 to 3 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 1/3 cups 1% lowfat milk
• 1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 teaspoons canola oil

Directions

1. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, flaxseed, sugar, chocolate chips, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Set aside.
2. Whisk together the eggs, milk, and pumpkin in a separate bowl until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened.
3. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Pour the batter onto the hot skillet using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, forming 4-inch pancakes. Cook until bubbles begin to appear on the surface of the pancakes and the bottoms turn golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
4. Repeat with the remaining oil and batter.
