Hi , welcome to Hot Chocolate Hits .
Today we're combining two breakfasts , oatmeal and pancakes to create some moist , soft fluffy healthy cinnamony pancakes .
These are amazing and they taste great with fruit and they're perfect for Sunday breakfast .
So let's get started .
You want to start by adding half a cup of whole wheat flour to a bowl along with a third cup of quick cooking oats .
I used the Quaker kind and a tablespoon of brown sugar for some sweetness .
You can use granulated sugar if you like next .
Add in a teaspoon of baking powder which makes these pancakes very fluffy and half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon for that warm flavor that goes so well with the oats , blend those ingredients together nicely and then crack in one whole egg .
You can also use two egg whites , but I wanted to make do with the whole egg .
You also want to add in half a teaspoon of vanilla extract for some flavor and two tablespoons of yogurt .
You can use any time you like Greek yogurt , vanilla yogurt .
Just make sure you add it because it makes these pancakes very , very moist , mix the ingredients together with a whisk or a spoon or a spatula .
It's a very basic recipe so it doesn't really matter in what order you add the ingredients .
And I like to start with dry ingredients so that I can get the baking powder evenly distributed throughout the batter .
Now , you wanna add two thirds of a cup of milk stir in the milk just until incorporated .
You want to make sure you don't overmix the pancake batter because that will result in a tough pancake .
I have here a pan that I greased with a little bit of oil and it's been heating for about five minutes .
I'm just going to scoop mouthfuls of the batter using an ice cream scoop so that I get nice even pancakes and I just like to spread it out slightly just to make sure that it's a little bit flatter and more of a stir shape like pancakes are supposed to be .
You essentially want about a quarter cup of pancake batter for each pancake .
Cook these babies for about 2 to 3 minutes or until you see those bubbles pop up on the surface before flipping and then cook for another 2 to 3 minutes .
Make sure you're using medium heat .
As you can see , they're nice and thick and they're a beautiful golden brown color .
Now , all that's left is stacking them high on a plate and piling them with your favorite toppings .
My personal preference .
Drenching them in some maple syrup .
Oh , just watch it dribble down the sides .
That is what I call a stack of good pancakes .
I also like to add some fresh berries .
I'm using blueberries and some frozen raspberries because that was all that was available .
Serve them also with some butter .
That's the best before digging in these pancakes take no more than 5 to 10 minutes to put together .
They're really quick to make , they're really simple and they're so soft .
Hm .
Cinnamon and oats .
Always go perfect together , especially when you're doing oatmeal .
These taste amazing with fruits and of course you want to put on some maple syrup and some butter .
Um I hope you enjoyed this recipe for soft fluffy pancakes .
