In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk with the apple cider vinegar and let it sit for about 5 minutes to curdle slightly, creating a buttermilk substitute.
Add the egg, honey, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the milk mixture. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes to allow the oats to soak slightly and thicken the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or additional melted butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear slightly dry, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or Greek yogurt.
