In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together until evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk and apple cider vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes to curdle and form a buttermilk substitute.
Whisk the egg, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract into the milk mixture until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Fold in the chopped nuts and seeds to add texture and crunch to the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Use the back of the spoon to spread the batter slightly into a circle.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip them over using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, like fresh fruit, yogurt, or an extra drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Enjoy!
