Pancakes (2 versions)

I love breakfast food. My husband, however, is not such a big fan. Because of this, if I make pancakes, french toast, etc., it's usually for myself for dinner when my husband is out of town. I grew up making pancakes from Bisquick, which I still like. However, since I make pancakes only rarely, and in small amounts, I have actually had Bisquick mix go bad before I could use it all.

Instead, I have started making pancakes from scratch. It's honestly almost as easy as using a mix, and I can use ingredients I have on hand. I've included 2 versions of pancakes. One is regular, the other is wholewheat. They're really the same recipe, the type and amount of flour just varies. I've actually been using half white and half wheat flour lately. It's a nice happy medium for me. (I'm not quite healthy enough to eat the straight whole wheat kind.) They're also tasty with fresh blueberries mixed into the batter.
