Pancakes - Good Source of Omega 3

1 cup - self-rising flour
1/4 cup - ground flax seed
1/4 cup - sugar
2 eggs (with omega 3 if possible)
1 tsp - vanilla
1 cup - milk
1 tbsp - canola oil (for frying)

Sift the flour & ground flax seed into a mixing bowl. Add the sugar and make a well in the center.

Whisk the eggs in a small mixing bowl, add the vanilla extract and milk and mix well. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking as you pour to form a smooth batter. Let rest 10 minutes.

Gently heat half the oil in a frying pan. Drop a large tablespoon of the mixture onto the pan - it will spread out to about 4 inches. Cook the pancakes 3 or 4 at a time for 3 minutes on the first side, then flip them over and cook another 2 minutes.

Serve immediately

This is a great recipe from book "The Top 100 Omega-3 Recipes"
