These pancakes are so yummy! Healthy and delicious. This recipe is from my husband’s Aunt Katie. Hope you enjoy! Try them with my favorite coconut syrup (you’ll need additional buttermilk and some coconut extract).
Aunt Katie’s Oatmeal Pancakes
submitted by Erin ~ The Sisters Cafe
2 c. quick oats
½ c. flour
3 T. sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 ½ c. buttermilk
2 large eggs (slightly beaten)
¼ c. butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla
add cinnamon, optional
Combine dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and let sit for 20-30 minutes, covered. (This step is very important.) Cook slowly on a griddle at 325°, or a little lower. The pancakes are easier to flip if they are not very big. Spray griddle before each batch. Let the pancake cook through on one side and then flip.

i’m going to go try these right now! i’m hungry :) these look so yummy!
Mmmm these look so good! I am out of buttermilk or I would whip them up this morning. I will try them soon! Thanks Erin!
Mmmm… looks delicious, sis! I can’t wait to try them.
looks good! Gabe and I are having these tomorrow morning for sure! :)
I’m always up for another pancake recipe. These sound great-buttermilk makes the best pancakes!!
I have a similar version that adds buttermilk, raisins and cinnamon, then you leave them in the fridge overnight. We always make them for Christmas morning. Overnight Raisin Oatmeal pancakes can be found on allrecipes.com
Hi Erin
Aproximately how much cinnamon would you suggest adding to the batter.
Hi Jackie- I have never added cinnamon, but if I did I would try 1/2 tsp. Good luck and let me know how you like the addition of cinnamon!
This is one of my favorite pancake recipes ever. It makes a ton so I eat them every morning for almost a week! Thanks for the recipe!
Oh, wow, that recipe looks amazing! I clicked over here from Org Junkie, so glad I did. Quick oats are not an option for me, as I need to use certified gluten-free oats and those only come in traditional form. Do you think if I let the oats soak for 10-15 minutes in the wet ingredients before adding to the dry it would work?
Hi Green V-Neck! So glad you stopped by! Honestly, I've only ever used quick cooking oats for any version of oatmeal pancakes I have tried. However, I think your idea of soaking them longer sounds good. I bet the only difference will be that your pancakes will be a bit denser, chewier, and heavier because the oats won't smooth out into the batter as readily. But I bet it would still taste great, just a coarser texture perhaps. Let me know how your experimentation with regular oats goes!
I had several cooking flops last weekend, and woke early yesterday to rain, and wanting whip up something delicious. I saw these and they were perfect! I loved enjoying them again today! :)
P.S. I added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon and it was great, but next time, I plan on adding more. I LOVE cinnamon!
Dents in my Fender,
I am thrilled that you enjoyed it! Thanks for the tip about how much cinnamon you used. I'm glad these made a yummy warm breakfast for a rainy morning!

I am not a pancake fan but these were DELICIOUS! My 3 little picky eaters loved them too. Thanks for the recipe.
These pancakes were awesome! My hubby is a picky eater and he was skeptical, but he loved them, too! I didn't have quick oats, so I put the old fashioned oats through my mini food chopper & I made buttermilk w/ milk & vinegar – they turned out great!
I'm curious… Will these work with regular milk instead of buttermilk? I actually have buttermilk on hand now since I just made your ranch dressing (btw it was AMAZING), but it's not something I usually have in the fridge. What do you suggest?
Good question, PCox. I used to not use buttermilk, but I have so many recipes that call for it (that I love to make and eat!) that I always have it in my fridge now. It's a staple. :) (There are a whole bunch of recipes that call for buttermilk on this blog – breakfasts, desserts/cakes, dressings)
If you need a substitute for buttermilk, you should use 1 T. lemon juice or vinegar plus enough regular milk to make 1 cup (let it stand for five minutes). (That's the substitute for one cup of buttermilk.) I have never tried this in this recipe, but it would be a better substitution that regular milk.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the buttermilk dressing recipe!
:)
Happy Baking!
