How to Make Whole Grain Pancakes Make Ahead Mix

  1. Place 1 cup rolled oats in a spice grinder or mini processor and process to the consistency of flour.
  2. Transfer the oat flour to a large bowl.
  3. Whisk in 2 cups pastry flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  4. Divide the dry mix evenly into three large zipper-top plastic bags (approximately 1 1/3 cups per bag).
  5. Refrigerate or freeze for up to three months.
  6. When ready to make pancakes, lightly beat 2 large eggs in a large bowl.
  7. Whisk in 1 ½ cups buttermilk (or milk), 4 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  8. Add the contents of one bag of pancake mix to the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. A slightly lumpy batter is okay!
  9. Heat a lightly oiled large griddle or skillet over medium heat. (Test the heat by sprinkling a few drops of water on the surface; they should sizzle immediately.)
  10. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake, leaving space between them.
  11. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles begin to appear on the surface and the edges look slightly dry.
  12. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! Keep warm in a 200°F oven if needed.
