 >Start the compote before making the pancakes&mdash\;that way\, your compo
 te can simmer and thicken while you make pancakes.&nbsp\;First\, rinse you
 r&nbsp\;pears\, apples\, and grapes. Do NOT peel your fruit!&nbsp\;</li>\n
 <li>Remove core from pears and apples. Cut fruit into 1-inch pieces&nbsp\;
 </li>\n<li>In a medium pot\, add pears\, apples\, grapes\, raisins\, cinna
 mon\, and nutmeg.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Add apple juice and water to pot to bar
 ely cover the fruit.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Bring fruit and juice to a boil. Red
 uce heat and simmer for 10&ndash\;15 minutes. Remove from heat.&nbsp\;This
  is a good time to start making your pancake mix&mdash\;look for Part 2 on
  your recipe card.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>In a colander\, strain the fruit over 
 a small bowl\, reserving the liquid.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Return the liquid to
  the pot. Add cornstarch. Cook on low to thicken slightly. Remove from sto
 ve and let cool.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Pour thickened juice mixture over fruit 
 and stir. Let it cool while you start making pancakes. Or\, store in an ai
 r-tight container for up to 1 week.&nbsp\;<br />&nbsp\;</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Pa
 rt 2: Pancakes!&nbsp\;</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Start your pancake batter while brin
 ging the compote fruit and juice to a boil (see&nbsp\;Step 5 of compote in
 structions).&nbsp\;In a large bowl\, combine flours\, oats\, baking powder
 \, and salt. Mix well.&nbsp\;<br />In another large bowl\, crack egg. Beat
  lightly with a fork.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Add orange juice\, milk\, and canol
 a oil to egg. Mix well.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Coat large skillet with non-stick
  cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Add wet ingre
 dients to dry ingredients. Stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. 
 Do not overmix.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Pour &frac14\; cup batter into hot pan fo
 r each pancake. Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>F
 lip pancakes when bubbles appear on top of the batter and the edges are sl
 ightly browned\, about 3-4 minutes. Cook until second side is slightly bro
 wned\, about 2-3 minutes more&nbsp\;<br />&nbsp\;</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Chef Not
 es:&nbsp\;<br />Pancakes&nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>If using an electric griddl
 e instead of a skillet\, preheat to 375&deg\;F before using.&nbsp\;</li>\n
 <li>Chop and add 3 Tablespoons of your favorite nuts if no one is allergic
  to them.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Make a double batch\, cool\, and then freeze th
 e cooked leftovers. To prevent the pancakes from sticking together\, layer
  waxed paper between each pancake. Place the stack in an airtight containe
 r or zip-top plastic bag. Freeze for no more than 6 weeks. Warm pancakes i
 n a microwave or toaster oven for a quick breakfast.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<
 p><br />Compote&nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use any type of apples and pears you
  like.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Try a combination of dark and golden raisins\, dri
 ed cranberries\, or dried cherries.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Enjoy alone or on top
  of grilled meat or fish\, over low-fat plain yogurt\, or over oatmeal or 
 toast.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>For a hearty and healthy brunch\, serve with whole
  wheat pancakes. Add a dollop of low-fat plain or vanilla yogurt.&nbsp\;</
