Fluffy Blender Whole Wheat Pancakes

I wanted to try using my blender to make whole wheat pancakes, but I was disappointed with how runny the batter was. And since my stove top heating element is tilted, a runny batter was no bueno! So, I added things until it was thicker and the result was fluffy pancakes that helped my family get some of their whole grains for the day. Since it's 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white flour, this is a great way to introduce your family to whole wheat as well as a great way to use up your wheat in your food storage- no grinder needed! This recipe does require soaking the wheat overnight, so be sure to plan ahead!
