Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes

Whole-Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes are a great way to create naturally sweetened pancakes that are healthy. The whole-wheat flour gives the pancakes a thicker consistency and a nuttier flavor that you will love! I like eating them with very mashed ripe bananas on top. They're sweet enough for me!
