How to Make Whole Grain Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour (optional), 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups buttermilk, and 1/4 cup vegetable oil.
  3. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. A few lumps are okay!
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Test the heat by sprinkling a few drops of water onto the surface; they should sizzle and evaporate quickly.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look slightly set.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! Applesauce and a sprinkle of cinnamon are delicious, but maple syrup is also a wonderful choice.
  8. Keep warm in a 200°F oven for up to 30 minutes if not serving immediately.
