Recipe // Oatmeal Pancakes

 

 

 

 

My oldest sister and I had a pancake party the other day. And by party, I mean just us two. This pancake recipe is probably the most commonly made and loved breakfast recipe we have in our family. Great texture taste. We put blueberries in these, but of course you can do without or add what you like. Topped with pure maple syrup, of course.

Oatmeal Pancakes
yields about 12

2 cups quick oats
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon real salt
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs slightly beaten
1/4 cup butter melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine dry ingredients.  Add wet ingredients and let sit for 20 to 30 minutes, covered*.
Cook slowly on a griddle at 325 degrees.

*The key here is letting the oats soak up all the wet ingredients. You pancakes will turn out loose and hard to flip if this step is missed.
