In some  churches small buns called Pax cakes  (symbolic of peace and goodwill) are given to the congregation as they leave  after a Palm Sunday service.
Beat one egg. Add and beat until smooth: 
1 cup sour milk or buttermilk 
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup whole wheat flour 
¼ cup wheat germ 
¼ cup white flour 
1 tablespoon sugar 
1 teaspoon baking powder 
½ teaspoon soda 
½ teaspoon salt 
Grease a heated skillet or griddle. Pour batter from jug onto the hot griddle in 
3 to 5 cm diameter dollops. Turn the Pax cakes when bubbles show. 
Heat on the second side until brown. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cinnamon may  be added if desired. 
Makes 30-50 Pax cakes. 
Variation: Use 1 cup white flour, instead of combining whole wheat flour, wheat  germ, and white flour.
