My family absolutely loves these pancakes. I make them every Saturday and Sunday. If I don't, they don't believe it's the weekend! My son's friends often spend the night, and I think it's because they like the pancakes so much. They are especially delicious served with molasses and syrup. —Sharon W. Bickett, Chester, South Carolina

Very good!!

MMM! Very, very good. The taste reminded me of doughnut. The mixture made me seven/eight pancakes. I hope'd they'd be filling with the oats, but two didn't seem enough... though I did stop at two... I could have ganneted the whole lot. Super.

Delicious. My mom doubles the recipe and makes these for my kids - they love them! They request them for dinner frequently.

My kids have texture issues, so we grind down the oats to a flour and they love this recipe. A new family favorite.

My husband is not a pancake lover, but it has now changed after I tried this recipe. I make a batch of these every weekend, and he eats them through the week for breakfast. I love the fact they have oatmeal. I add blueberries for him. Dee-licious!

This is a keeper! It not only went in my online recipe box at TOH but on a 3x5 card into my real recipe box. I didn't have buttermilk so used low-fat milk with lemon juice and just a pinch of salt since I'm cutting back on salt. I like to make pancakes and freeze them so I have a quick breakfast already ready to eat. I ended up eating three of these before I got them all made. Thanks for sharing your recipe! It's good it's high fiber also!

This was excellent! I substituted 1/2 of the brown sugar with Splenda to lower the sugar content, added a little less than 1/2 t. salt, and they tasted great! Very filling. My batch made 11 4-inch pancakes, which were plenty. Plus, since it didn't make too many, I wasn't standing over the stove too long. Will definitely make again. Thank you for the healthier breakfast food!

YUM! Loved them! I followed the recipe exactly other than the buttermilk. I used a cup of milk soured w/ 1 tablespoon vinegar. The recipe only made 6 pancakes plus one tiny pancake, but they are very filling.

THE best pancake EVER! And I don't(didn't) like pancakes. I followed the recipe exactly then added cinnamon at the last minute. No syrup necessary! Delicious!

These were delicious! The batter was very thick and only made 8 - 1/3 cup pancakes for me. My daughter, who normal doesn't like pancakes, ate these all up!!

These were the perfect addition to our "breakfast for dinner" meal. They have a bit of a dry texture but soak up the syrup well and become moist. A homemade chocolate sauce or something similar would be divine over the top to pair with the brown sugar and oatmeal flavor. I might try that the next time!

Absolutely delicious. I have tried many pancakes from these recipes and I love all of them. Cant really choose just one favorite

nice wholesome taste and texture, but a little too sweet for my taste.

Very delicious, tasted like doughnuts and were very sweet. Imwould modifynthe recipe to make it more diabetic friendly. I added vanilla, cinnamon and poudre douce which probably gave it moremof the dessert flavour. No syrup required! Yummy!

We loved these pancakes! I'm trying to rate this as a five-star, but can't see the stars, so not sure if it's working. I doubled the recipe, because I thought it wouldn't so I could have leftovers for breakfast before school, but didn't have much left, they were so good! I also put in some sliced almonds and a little cinnamon.

Reviewed on Jun. 04, 2012 by agwife

These were great. I didn't use as much brown sugar as I thought they might be too sweet. Next time I will use the right amount. My husband thought they were great. I think this will become our new go to recipe for pancakes.

I made this as a Mothers Day breakfast for my sweetheart recently, she loved it and everyone else loved it as well. I would most assuredly make this again, even for a normal weekend breakfast. Thank you very much for the recipe, LOVED it.

These were delicious. Very filling. If I had made each pancake 3" or 4", then I might have gotten 10 pancakes, but I did not. I had some big ones for me and little ones for the my kids. I added a tablespoon of melted butter in place of one tablespoon of oil, but it probably wasn't necessary. I also added a heaping 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and was really glad I did. Wonderful.

I made these for breakfast last Saturday and they were a hit. They are quite heavy and really soak up the syrup. I think next time I'll try heating up some frozen berries to put over them to cut a little bit on the calories.

Reviewed on May. 20, 2012 by CatJackNed

Added cinnamon & nutmeg like others. A little water because batter was so thick too. But it is nice to eat a substantial pancake and not one that is tasteless. Have made it twice. So hearty and good!

Substituted 3/4 c low fat vanilla yogurt and a little over 1/4 c milk for the buttermilk. Tasted fantastic and needed no syrup. Served with a dollop of whipped cream and the kids went wild. Definitely will be our new go-to pancake recipe!

Also, since these are so flavorful on their own, I used sliced bananas as the only topping. Yummy! Hubby liked his with Greek yogurt.

Made these this morning-awesome! Best pancakes I think I've ever had. The recipe says it makes 10, but that must be 10 really small pancakes. I made the recipe and a half and got eight 6 to 8 inch pancakes. I did throw in a handful of walnuts also which added a nice texture to an already delicious pancake. Also, I didn't have quick cooking oatmeal, just the regular, and the substitution was fine. Highly recommend these pancakes, and thanks for sharing this recipe.

Very good but too many unnecessary ingredients. I'll continue using my moms recipe.....leftover oatmeal from breakfast, an egg, a little flour and enough milk to make a batter. Unbelievably light & served with hot, brown sugar syrup.

These are very good! Happylady 13 and Avilda-you should not be worried about that little bit of salt! If you leave out the salt the only effect on the recipe would be that it wouldn't taste as good! I can't believe that you don't use any salt at all and that 1/2 would be that bad for you!!!
