This recipe is especially for Hailey :). I found it on allrecipes.com. It makes a huge batch so I stick leftovers in a large, gallon sized zip lock and put them in the fridge. I could dish out pancakes to the kids every morning for a whole week by just sticking these in the microwave. The kids loved them--especially Hailey.
1 1/2 C. oatmeal
1 1/2 C. whole wheat flour
2 t. baking soda
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 C. buttermilk (substitute is milk and lemon juice--1 T. lemon juice to ever 1/2 C. milk)\
1 C. milk
1/2 C. applesauce
1 egg
1/3 C. sugar
3 tablespoons chopped walnuts
Grind the oats in a blender until fine. In a large bowl, combine ground oats, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, combine buttermilk, milk, apple sauce, egg, and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth. Mix wet ingredients into dry with a few swift strokes. Stir in nuts, if desired.
Lightly oil a skillet or griddle and preheat it to medium heat. Ladle 1/3 C. batter into hot skillet, cook pancakes for 2 to 4 minutes per side, or until brown.
