Wheat Pancakes or Waffles

I love this recipe. It's been passed down on my mom's side of the family and is a GREAT way to use your food storage. I often make a batch of waffles and then keep them in the fridge and through-out the week, we just pop them in the toaster for a fast breakfast.

Mix Dry ingredients:

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup powdered milk
1 TB baking powder

Then add:

1/4 cup oil
2 eggs

Mix with a wire whisk and add water until you get a consistency a little runnier than cake batter.
