Cinna-Oat Pancakes

Okay FTFC fam, I promise that not all of my posts will be breakfast items. I'm just going one by one through items I already have pictures of first.  I'm already getting requests for certain dessert recipes, so we may be in the bread family for a little while. 

Cinna-Oat Pancakes (makes 6-10 pancakes)

cooking spray or a tab of butter
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2tbsp white granulated sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
1/2 cup whole grain oats
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp melted butter
2 tbsp white vinegar
3/4 cup milk
The last 3 ingredients can be substituted for a cup of buttermilk

You can combine the vinegar and milk and let it set about 10 minutes to sour. Then add the melted butter and whisk it together. (Or you could just use a cup of buttermilk if you readily have it. I don't always have buttermilk just hanging out in my fridge.) Add egg and vanilla. Separately mix the dry ingredients: flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, cinnamon, oats. Whisk the wet and dry ingredients until there are no lumps.
In a skillet heated to medium that's either sprayed with non-stick spray or coated with melted butter, spoon the batter in to your desired pancake size. When the edges and golden and it's bubbled up, it's time to flip. When both sides are golden, remove from the pan. Repeat until you've used all the batter.

I personally prefer 2 strips of crispy bacon with my 2 butter-and-syrup topped pancakes. (Sorry pigs!) You have it with whatever you like. 

-Until again-
