Hey guys! I just had the most amazing breakfast ever this morning. OATMEAL PANCAKES! I must say, they were pretty awesome! I got this recipe online. The key to this recipe is to plan and mix up the ingredients the night before. Doing so would be create a win-win situation! You would have nice soft pancakes while shaving off the time you spend in the kitchen in the morning. I promise they’re good!
Let’s get started…
What you need:
Version 1
- 2 cups quick oatmeal
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour (or all purpose flour)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 1/2 cups buttermilk (or Smart Balance Light Butter)
Version 1
Or try a more healthy version:
Version 2
- 3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour (or wheat flour)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup soy milk
- 3 tablespoons Smart Balance Light butter
Version 2
Directions:
Be sure to prepare the batter the night before you want to make these! In a large bowl mix the oatmeal, flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, honey, eggs, vanilla, and buttermilk and mix until the batter is well-combined (version 1) or mix together the quick-cooking oats, all purpose flour, baking soda, sugar, egg, soy milk, and butter (version 2). Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Re stir the batter. Heat the skillet on the stove-top over medium-low to medium heat (Note: you may spray the pan with cooking spray). The size of your pancakes should be about ¼ round of batter. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes. Next, slide a spatula underneath and flip the pancakes. Cook for another minute or so until they are cooked through. Finished!
