Wholesome Oatmeal Pancakes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Wholesome Oatmeal Pancakes.

1. Step 1

   Start by mixing the rolled oats with buttermilk in a large bowl. Let this mixture soak for about 15 minutes; this step is key to achieving that perfect pancake texture. While the oats are soaking, grab another large bowl and whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. This blend of dry ingredients will add a delightful flavor and fluffiness to your pancakes.

2. Step 2

   In a separate small bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined. Once the oats have soaked, stir this egg mixture into the oat and buttermilk blend. Now, gently fold the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients. If the batter feels a bit too thick, don’t hesitate to add a splash of milk, about a tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. The batter should be thick but pourable, ready to create fluffy pancakes!

3. Step 3

   Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it. For each pancake, ladle about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot surface. Cook until the edges look set and the bottom is a lovely golden brown, which should take about 2 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is golden as well. Repeat this process until all the batter is used up, enjoying the delightful aroma filling your kitchen.
