How to Make Cereal Pancakes

  1. Cook 1 cup of your favorite oatmeal according to package directions. Let it cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in ⅓ cup melted unsalted butter and 2 egg whites (lightly beaten).
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup of your favorite crushed cereal (e.g., corn flakes, Rice Krispies).
  7. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  8. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  9. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip only once for best results.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate chips.
