Oatmeal Buttermilk Pancakes

Since I didn't cook dinner last night I thought I would make Moe a good breakfast.  Buttermilk Oatmeal Pancakes.    I made these for him once before, almost a year ago.  I should make them more often though because they really are good.   The oatmeal  is mixed with the buttermilk and left to soak overnight covered in the fridge.   You would think that they would be heavy, but they are not.  But they do have a texture.

I cut the recipe in half and it made 6 large pancakes.

Served with warm "real" maple syrup.

Oatmeal Buttermilk Pancakes
2 c rolled oats
2 c buttermilk
2 eggs
1/4 c butter, melted
1/2 c flour
2 T sugar
1 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1/2 t ground cinnamon
1/4 t salt

Combine oats and buttermilk. Refrigerate overnight.
Add two eggs. Add melted and cooled butter.
Mix in separate bowl: Flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Stir flour mixture into oat mixture until moist.
Preheat griddle and then dollop about 1/4 c of batter for each pancake.

Julia's Note: I have no idea where this recipe came from, but it is a good one. It comes together very quickly in the morning, especially if you prepare the flour base the night before when you mix the buttermilk and oats together.
