Morada Farms Oatmeal Pancakes
"Christin Cooper (1984 Silver Medal Olympic Winner in alpine skiing) says the recipe can be adjusted using stone-ground whole wheat flour and hearty oats for big ski days or white flour and quick oats for mellower mornings by the wood stove. I wanted to make a heartier pancake that didn't taste like cake this morning, and the texture reminds me of cottage cheese pancakes. The oil in the recipe is completely optional. Little or no oil is needed for cooking. The batter is runnier than a traditional batter, but they fluff up during cooking. If the batter sits too long, the oats will continue to absorb the milk and you may have to add more milk (my batter didn't sit, but this is Christin's suggestion). I added a splash of vinegar to the milk to make buttermilk because I didn't have yogurt. Next time I make these I think I'll add a little vanilla and maybe some cinnamon for fun. I think blueberries would also be yummy. Recipe from Sun Valley Celebrity and Local Heroes Cookbook. Thank you Christin for your delicious recipe!"

First, thanks so much for the detailed instructions & helpful hints in the intro. Things like that may seem small but they are SO helpful! I really liked these pancakes. I didn't use any brown sugar, adding a small amount of Splenda instead, and addd a very yummy amount of cinnamon. I used rolled oats, hot water, applesauce for the yogurt & oat flour for the flour ingredient. I used about half the amount of milk listed, since I do enjoy a nice thick pancake. At first, I didn't use my stick blender, but it didn't turn out that great. Next pancake, I did use it & it really made a big difference in the look, texture & taste (to me, at least!) They're not sweet, but bananas & sugar free syrup make it work great. Thank you very much for sharing; I love oatmeal pancakes & loved trying this out. Next time I'm going to spread on some natural peanut butter for nuttiness & extra protein.

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
