LEFTOVER OATMEAL PANCAKES



~ RidgetopFamilyFarm - Sonlight Forums

1 c. unbleached flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
1 c. cold cooked oatmeal
2 eggs
1/2 c. milk
2 T. oil or melted butter

Mix dry ingredients together; cut oatmeal into mixture. Mix wet ingredients in another bowl, then stir into oatmeal mixture. 

Cook on lightly greased griddle over medium-high heat. Use 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. 

Makes about 7 pancakes.

Notes: These are thick and puffy pancakes that taste wonderful, thanks to the cinnamon!! I often make too much oatmeal so there will be leftovers for pancakes. Otherwise I just accumulate leftovers throughout the week, then make a batch of pancakes for eating or freezing. I've successfully used butter, as well as canola, vegetable, and melted coconut oil. One of my family's favorite things to do with them is to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, using pancakes as the bread.

These pancakes turn out awesome w/ gluten free flour- pancakes don't need xanthen gum, so any old all-purpose GF flour will do. Which rocks my world, b/c my kids LOVE PB & J, but hate any and all GF breads we've tried :) YAY for Bethany!!

I just tried these pancakes this morning, with a few tweaks, & the whole family loved them! I subbed packed brown sugar for the white sugar & I used melted coconut oil for the oil. I'll definitely be trying the gluten free suggestion mentioned above, because I think my gf dd would way prefer this for bread over the dry gluten free bread she has to endure!
