Oatmeal Pancakes

Step 1

If you’d like to keep the pancakes warm between batches, place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

Step 2

Place the oil, Greek yogurt, milk, 1 1/4 cups oats, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt in a blender.

Step 3

Blend until the batter is smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Continue blending until you don’t see any remaining bits of oats.

Step 4

Stop the blender, then stir in the remaining 3/4 cup oats and any desired mix-ins. Do not blend again. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes while you heat the skillet/griddle and prep any toppings.

Step 5

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly butter or oil the pan if needed (some nonstick pans do not need this).

Step 6

Once the skillet is hot, drop the batter by 1/4 cupfuls into the pan. Let cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side, until the pancakes look dry at the edges and small bubbles form on top.

Step 7

Gently flip, then cook on the other side for 1 to 2 minutes. They should look golden on both sides. If desired, transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven between batches. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve hot, with desired toppings.
