Oatmeal Pancakes

Ingredients

• ¾ cups Oat Flour (from 1 Cup Rolled Oats)
• 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
• 2 Tablespoons Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• ¾ teaspoons Salt
• 3 Tablespoons Butter, Melted, Plus Extra To Cook Pancakes
• 1 cup 1% Milk
• 2 whole Eggs, Beaten
• 1 cup Cooked Oatmeal
• ¾ Tablespoons Molasses

Preparation Instructions

First, make your oat flour. Simply pour 1 cup of rolled oats into a food processor and grind until they become a flour-like substance. 1 cup of oats will make 3/4 cup of oat flour.

Next, combine the dry ingredients (oat flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder and salt) in a large bowl.

In a medium sized bowl, mix the wet ingredients (butter, milk, eggs, cooked oatmeal and molasses). Note: to cook the oatmeal, mix 1 cup of rolled oats with 2 cups of water and simmer on the stove for about 5-7 minutes.

Finally, fold the wet ingredients into the dry and mix well.

Now all you have to do is cook the pancakes! Heat a pan over medium heat with a little butter to keep the batter from sticking. Pour the batter onto the pan and flip when each side is cooked through. This recipe will make about 15 small pancakes or 6-8 large ones.
