Whole Wheat Blender Pancakes

Last weekend my nephews slept over and requested "normal pancakes" for breakfast.  I said whats a normal pancake and they said the white kind.  So I made buttermilk pancakes for them and my kids said they were blahh.  So this is what a normal pancake at our house is.  It is a great recipe because it does not require a grinder and has so much flavor you can eat just with fruit, or a bit of honey or syrup if you like.
Blender Pancakes:
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup wheat berries (just the regular wheat grain)
Add the following and blend for 1 to 2 min on the highest setting
Then add:
1 egg
1tsp. salt
1/3 cup of oil ( I never use oil you can easily substitute with applesauce or cottage cheese)
2/3 tsp. baking powder
2 tbs. honey
Blend all ingredients for 2 to 3 more minutes.  The thickness of your batter will depend on your blender so if it is too runny you will need to add more wheat or less milk then next time and just add some regular flour this time.  If the batter is still gritty then blend longer. I always double this recipe for our family of 6 and that leaves a few leftover for snacks later in the day.
