Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
  • ½ cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions
 

  • Combine the oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar. Stir until evenly blended.
  • Whisk together the egg, melted butter, and buttermilk until fully incorporated.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter should remain slightly lumpy—avoid overmixing.
  • Heat a greased cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium heat. Test by sprinkling a few drops of water; if they sizzle, it's ready.
  • Pour ⅓ cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
  • Flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the skillet and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.

Notes

Chef Jenn's Tips

  • Add chopped nuts or fresh berries to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
  • If you like a sweeter pancake, increase the brown sugar to ½ cup or serve with maple syrup.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven while finishing the batch.
  • To freeze, place parchment paper between pancakes and store them in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or microwave before serving.
