These pancakes are a delightful twist on the classic oatmeal pancake recipe, featuring a rich brown sugar flavor and a fluffy texture.
Combine the oats, flours, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the dry ingredients are well combined to avoid uneven distribution of flavors.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, and vegetable oil.
Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
Heat a greased griddle over medium heat and pour 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake.
Wait for bubbles to form on the surface before flipping the pancakes.
Flip the pancakes and cook until the second side is golden brown.
Press lightly on the pancakes to check for doneness; they should spring back.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
Consider serving with a side of fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup for added flavor.
