This oatmeal pancake recipe is based on one from a classic milk cookbook, but it lends itself easily to healthier and vegan variations. Soy milk can be substituted for dairy milk, and egg replacer can be substituted for chicken eggs without compromising flavour or texture. Health conscious cooks can make this recipe low fat by reducing the butter by half and adding a touch of unsweetened applesauce.
Though this recipe uses large flake or quick oats and whole wheat flour, the kids will never notice their pancakes have had a healthy makeover. Oatmeal pancakes are just mildly sweet, which lends them to all sorts of inventive toppings and flavourings. See below for a selection of these additions.
