My daughter is pretty crazy about pancakes and it is our weekend ritual to have them once a week so we are constantly trying out new recipes to keep them exciting. This recipe for Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes was a pretty decent find, but the next time I make them I'm going to do some serious tweeking. I was vaguely aware when I was making them that there were no spices added to the mix. There were so many positive reviews online that I assumed the pancakes stood firm all on their own...but they didn't. Don't get me wrong, these pancakes were good, but could use some vanilla and/or almond extract, cinnamon and nutmeg. I would also cut back on the milk as the batter was a touch runny causing the pancakes to be flat.
Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes:
1/2 cup wheat flour
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
2 cups milk
3 eggs beaten
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Preheat lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. In a large bowl mix whole wheat and white flours with brown sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, mix milk and oats. Whisk in eggs and oil. Pour into dry mix all at once. Continue mixing until smooth. Gently fold in blueberries.
Pour batter about 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared griddle. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, until bubbly. flip and continue cooking until lightly browned on both sides.
