Pancakes!

Who doesn't love pancakes?

Next time you get ready to make pancakes from scratch, how about trying something new? Here's my recipe for oat flour pancakes, which will add fiber and great flavor to your breakfast.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups oats (put in blender to pulverize)

3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon raw (or brown) sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons applesauce

Directions
1. Measure out the oatmeal and pulverize in the blender or food processor.
2. Mix oats with baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center of the bowl for the wet ingredients.
3. Melt the butter; mix with applesauce and milk.
4. Add egg, butter, applesauce, and milk to oat flour mixture; mix well.
5. Melt a few teaspoons of butter in a skillet on medium high; spoon out pancakes and cook until golden brown on both sides.
