Description

These Oatmeal Buttermilk Pancakes are the ultimate comfort food for a satisfying morning meal. The combination of quick oats and buttermilk creates a batter that is both hearty and incredibly tender, resulting in pancakes with a beautiful golden-brown crust and a soft, fluffy interior. The subtle sweetness of the sugar complements the tangy richness of the buttermilk, while the melted shortening ensures a moist texture. Perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch or a quick weekday breakfast, these pancakes are easy to make with pantry staples. Serve them warm with a pat of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup for a classic, home-style treat that brings warmth and flavor to your table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the quick oats, baking soda, and buttermilk.
  2. Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  4. Add the sifted dry ingredients, melted shortening, and beaten eggs to the oat mixture.
  5. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Heat a lightly greased griddle or skillet over medium heat.
  7. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle.
  8. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip.
  9. Cook the other side until golden brown.
  10. Serve hot with butter and syrup.

Note

If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it stand for 5 minutes.

For a richer flavor, you can replace the melted shortening with melted butter.

Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200&# 194;°F (95ðC) oven while you finish cooking the rest of the batch.

Leftover batter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good stir before cooking.
