I had no idea when I saw the recipe for these pancakes in my Lehman’s Anniversary Cookbook that these pancakes would be such a big hit with my six-year-old. She loved them! I guess I should of known she would considering she likes pancakes and loves oatmeal.
I must confess that I normally do not like pancakes; it is mainly a textural thing. I normally put fruit and/or nuts in them to make them tolerable and to increase their nutritional value. However, I really liked these pancakes. They do not have the same texture as the normal pancakes. They are light, but the beneficial oatmeal gives them a different consistency. I think it also makes for a slightly sweeter batter than the regular from scratch pancakes.
