Apple Pancakes

2 eggs
1 cup whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup water or milk or apple juice
2 Tbls. baking powder
2 Tbls. butter
2 Tbls. honey or brown sugar or maple syrup or molasses
1 apple

Stir together the flour and baking powder. Cut in the butter, then stir in the water and honey. (If using apple juice, omit the honey). Cut the apple into thin slices, removing the core. Stir into the batter.

Each pancake should have about 1/4 cup batter. Cook on a hot, oiled skillet.

Apple Carrot Chew

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 cup grated carrot, packed down
1/4 cup grated apple, packed down
1/4 cup apple sauce
1/3 cup molasses
1 tsp. lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Stir together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in the molasses, grated carrot, grated apple, lemon juice, and applesauce. Mix until there is no more powder; it makes a thick dough.

Oil a 8" square pan and press the dough evenly into it. Bake for 20 minutes. Cut into squares to serve.
