Breakfast in 5 Minutes!

These are waffles (or pancakes) so the first thing you'll want to do is plug in the waffle iron or get the pancake pan heating up.

1 cup of milk and
1 cup of whole wheat (Yes, whole wheat. Trust me, it will be okay)
Blend this for 2 minutes, then add
1/2 cup of milk
1/2 cup of oil
3 eggs
4 tsp. baking powder and
1/2 tsp salt.
Blend this for 2 more minutes (that makes 4 minutes total thus far).
And then cook it! (That's the last minute)
And there you have it. Breakfast in five minutes! Grandma and I just had some this morning and it was really good. Usually I'm the modern type who doesn't like whole wheat and just sticks with store bought white bread but I actually really like this.

Now, my problem would be getting a hold of the whole wheat. You can get it from the Bishop's storehouse (25 lbs for $5.90) or from any health food store, but they charge a lot! Grandpa always preferred the hard wheat because it gives the waffles a nutty texture, but if you like it soft you can just get the soft wheat. And here's a note of wisdom from Grandma: if the wheat is made into wheat flower and it's not frozen don't buy it. It has no food value left. Just buy the wheat and grind it or use it when you're ready. It lasts a whole lot longer.
