I have quite a few pancake recipes on this site. Sweet Potato Pancakes are warm and cozy, spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg. I serve them with cinnamon syrup which is also perfect on Cinnamon Raisin Bread Pancakes.
If you are looking for a super light and fluffy pancake recipe, these Lemon Poppy Seed Ricotta Pancakes are EHHHVERYTHING. Whipped egg whites are folded in like meringue. It’s a whole experience. Then there are Morning Glory and Zucchini Bread Pancakes that taste like their muffin counterparts, but it’s acceptable to eat a stack doused in syrup.
These Oat Nut Whole Wheat Pancakes were one of the earliest breakfast recipes I wrote for this site, and they are really a lesson in how pancakes are supposed to be.
To make buttermilk in a pinch, mix together 1 tablespoon white vinegar + 1 cup LESS 1 tablespoon milk. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Oat Nut Whole Wheat Pancakes
This Whole Wheat Pancake recipe yields earthy, nutty, fluffy pancakes that are heart-healthy and full of whole grains. Whether you load these pancakes up with blueberries or enjoy them as-is, this recipe will be a pancake breakfast staple.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
- 3 tablespoons natural almonds
- 3 tablespoons pecans
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 4 ounces fresh blueberries (optional)
- **butter for the skillet
- **fresh whipped cream
- **fresh strawberries or other fruit to garnish
Instructions
- Put the old fashioned oats, almonds and pecans into a blender or food processor and pulse or grind until coarse crumbs are formed.
- In a large bowl whisk together the oat/nut mixture, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and sugar.
- In a smaller bowl beat the egg and then whisk in the oil. Stir it into the dry mixture and then slowly pour in the buttermilk, stirring until just combined.
- Set the batter aside for about 10 minutes to let it rise. While the batter rests, heat the pancake griddle or skillet.
- If you are adding blueberries, gently fold them into the batter.
- Butter the cooking surface and measure the batter out by the 1/4 cup. Cook until bubbly and then flip.
- Serve the hot pancakes with fresh whipped cream and fruit.
Notes
- You can substitute fat free buttermilk for regular buttermilk.

Do it yourself! It tastes better and it's cheaper! It's so frustrating when you go to a restaurant and are terribly disappointed, especially when it's an easy fix! You showed them how it's done!

It's true: much better results and way way cheaper. It's a good little restaurant we have here if you want that one thing. But I'll tell you those disappointing apple pancakes swore me off of exploring their menu for good.
