In a blender, add 1 cup of rolled oats and blend until it forms a fine oat flour.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, 0.5 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to combine.
In another bowl, whisk together 1.25 cups of milk, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly oil if necessary.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat until all the batter is used, adjusting the heat as necessary to ensure evenly cooked pancakes.
Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
