The following recipe for Oatmeal Pancakes is from SurvivalBlog reader Joanna E.  She writes:  “Do you have more oats than flour in your food storage supplies? No worries!  Make oatmeal pancakes…”

Ingredients
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk, regular or non-dairy
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, and some more for cooking
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Directions
  1. Whisk 1 cup rolled oats and 1 cup milk together in a large bowl.
  2. Let stand for 10 minutes for the oats to soften.
  3. Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and set it aside to cool.
  4. Add the butter, 2 eggs, and 1 tablespoon granulated white sugar to the oats, and whisk to combine.
  5. Add 2/3 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, if desired, and whisk until just combined; do not overmix. Let stand for 5 minutes more.
  6. Meanwhile, heat a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Add 1 teaspoon butter to the pan and swirl to coat.
  8. Drop the batter into the pan in 2-tablespoon portions, cooking 3 at a time.
  9. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, the edges begin to look dry, and the bottoms are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
  10. Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side is golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  11. Transfer the pancakes to a warm oven or plate. Repeat cooking the remaining batter, using 1 teaspoon if butter for each batch.
