🥘 Ingredients

13 items

• 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.75 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Sugar
• 0.25 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for greasing the skillet)

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. In a blender or food processor, pulse the old-fashioned rolled oats until finely ground into an oat flour consistency. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.

2. Add the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the ground oats. Whisk together to evenly combine the dry ingredients.

3. In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and sugar until well combined.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are fine.

5. Fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

6. Let the pancake batter rest for 5–10 minutes. This allows the oats to absorb some of the moisture, resulting in fluffier pancakes.

7. Meanwhile, preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of unsalted butter.

8. Once hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Use the back of the spoon to gently spread the batter into a circular shape if needed.

9. Cook the pancakes for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

10. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while repeating with the remaining batter.

11. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, or fresh fruit. Enjoy!
