How to Make Old Fashioned Oatmeal Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats and 1 cup buttermilk.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  3. In the morning, add 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons melted margarine to the oat mixture.
  4. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just moistened. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
  7. If the batter is too thick, add additional buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a pourable consistency.
  8. Lightly spray a griddle or skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Pour 1/4 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 when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite syrup and/or applesauce.
