Heart Healthy Oatmeal Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the rolled oats and buttermilk together in a large bowl; allow to soak 15 minutes.
• Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate large bowl.
• Beat the eggs and milk together in a separate small bowl; mix into the soaked oats. Stir the flour mixture into the oat mixture. If the batter seems dry, add milk about 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
• Grease a skillet or griddle and place over medium heat. Ladle about 1/2 cup of batter per pancake onto your preheated cooking surface. Cook until the pancake is lightly golden brown, about 2 minutes, flip, and continue cooking to brown other side, another 1-2 minutes.

Steps:

• Lightly oil an electric frypan or pancake griddle with no-stick cooking spray and heat.
• Whisk (wet ingredients) milk, oil, and eggs together; combine remaining (dry) ingredients and add them to the wet ingredients; stir to combine all.
• Pour 1/4 cup of batter at a time onto hot griddle to form 5-6" pancakes; cook until surface of pancakes is bubbled; flip pancakes over and cook until both sides are light golden brown.
• NOTES: The ratio of white flour to whole wheat flour can easily be varied (example: 1 cup white with 1/2 cup wheat flour) to suit your family's preference. Also, you may opt to use two whole eggs instead of fussing with egg whites. And for this recipe, your choice of either quick-cooking or regular old-fashioned oatmeal will work just fine.

Steps:

• Pour buttermilk over oats and soak 15 minutes or up to overnight.
• Beat in egg, oil, brown sugar and vanilla.
• Mix in dry ingredients.
• Fry on a hot, greased griddle until bubbles form on top. Flip over and cook another minute or two until cooked through.
• Serve smeared with butter, maple syrup or jam.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients.
• Add buttermilk, eggs, and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until blended - do not overmix.
• Pour batter by 1/4 cupful onto a lightly greased hot griddle.
• Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes. Cook until second side is golden.
• Serve with freshly cut strawberries if possible and warm maple syrup. Yum!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the egg, buttermilk, oil and vanilla. Stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened., Pour batter by 1/4 cupful onto a hot griddle that has been coated with cooking spray. Turn when bubbles form on top; cook until the second side is golden brown. Serve with berries if desired.

Steps:

• Heat milk or water until hot (if using water-I just used hot tap water). Add oats & set aside
• Mix remaining dry ingredients & add to oatmeal mixture
• Fold in egg whites and mix until well blended. I use my stick blender for a smoother batter; but that is optional! The batter is thick; depending on how long the oats have soaked you may want to add a little water to thin it out.
• Cook on a nice hot griddle!
• There are variations listed on the link provided above--you can add nuts, blueberries or protein powder! I am a "topper-" I spread natural peanut butter on top, sliced bananas & sugar free syrup!
