AWESOME BANANA BERRY PANCAKES

1 cup all-purpose flour               2 large eggs

1 cup whole wheat flour              1 ¼ cups skim or low-fat milk

1 Tbs. baking powder                 1/3 cup olive or canola oil

½ teaspoon cinnamon                   ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg 1 cup raspberries

¼ cup sugar                               Cooking oil spray

1 large ripe banana                    syrup or jelly

1. Mix the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar in the large bowl.
2. Mash the banana in a small bowl, using the tines of a fork to press it against the sides of the bowl until creamy.  Set aside.
3. Crack the eggs into the other small bowl.  Beat lightly with the fork.
4. Add the banana, eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture.  Stir with the wooden spoon until just blended.
5. Discard any raspberries that have become moldy.  Then wash the rest of the berries in the colander and drain well.  Fold them gently into the batter.
6. Spray the griddle or frying with cooking oil spray, and place it over medium heat for 1 minute.
7. Using the ladle, pour enough batter on the griddle or frying pan to make a 4 inch pancake.
8. When bubbles appear and the pancake is golden brown underneath, turn with the spatula and cook the other side of the pancake for about 1 minute, until it is golden brown and cooked underneath.  Stack pancakes on plate to keep warm.
9. Serve with syrup or jam.
