This is delish! For anyone following a diebetic diet, the brown rice is always a better choice. I used 1/2 cup of honey. Honey takes longer to digest, again, better for your diet. I also added raisins, also used fat free evaporated milk and skim milk. You won't notice the lack of fat. I also took a readers idea for ground cinnamon. This really is one of those I will use forever...thank you for your recipe Diana.

This is a great pancake. Being a diabetic, having whole grain and oats are so much a better choice. So, the only thing I changed the first time, I used 3/4 C and a 1/4 C of whole wheat. The next time I made it, I tweeked it more to make it healthier....instead of milk, I used fat free buttermilk. Because I used the buttermilk , I added 1/4 tsp. of baking soda in the dry ingredients. I used apple sauce instead of the butter...and I used old fashion oats. Now to make sure everything was ready to use...I let it sit at least 20 minutes before using. This way the oats are softened and you can spread the batter into perfect rounds, no mound of oats in middle and thin batter around it....Thank you Fred for you recipe.

This is so delish, and good for you. My husband said he never thought he would eat something that looked like this...lol...yes he loves it too! I used garbonzo beans instead of kidney beans. I made it like it called for first. Then I tweeked it by just using 1 cup of sugar instead of 1 1/4 cup..we never noticed that 1/4 C. missing. I have mmade tgis many times now. And there is usuall enough liquid left to use again with new beans and onions....just leave it in for at leaast an hour....thanks for this recipe idea Kim.....Cindy
