Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes


I can usually pass pancakes up for breakfast and just grab a yogurt and some fruit, but not when I make these! No, when I make these I pull up a chair and chow down with my kiddos! They are so good! Don't even think about eating these without some whipped cream!

**I have updated this recipe to make these pancakes easier to flip/work with~

Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes
1 cup old fashioned Oats
1 cup + 1 1/2 Tablespoons Flour
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 cup Coconut
1/4 cup chopped Nuts, optional
3/4 cup Sour Cream
3/4 cup Whole or 2% milk
2 Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 cup Butter, melted

Whipped Cream and Syrup for Serving!!

In a large microwave bowl, melt butter in microwave. Add eggs and beat with a whire whisk. Add vanilla, sour cream, and milk. Add brown sugar and stir. Add oats and flour on top, don't stir! Then add baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon, and stir into flour mixture with a fork. Then mix all into the wet ingredients. Add chocolate chips and nuts and coconut if using. Stir well. Cook on heated griddle sprayed with cooking spray or spread with butter.

Please NOTE: 1st of all, this is a really heavy batter. So I quickly learned; trying to pour it out of a measuring cup I ended up with a huge blob because it came out too fast. So instead I take a 1/4 or 1/3 cup measuring cup and scoop out individual pancakes that way. Just fill it up as big as you want your pancakes. Also this pancake batter browns and can burn quickly so you have to reduce the temperature you normally cook pancakes at. So for example I usually cook pancakes on my griddle at like 350, but for these I cook them at around 250-300. They may take a couple of minutes more, but they brown much better and more evenly that way.Yumarama!
