Multigrain flour, rolled oats and wheat germ give these quite chewy pancakes a wholesome flavour. Multigrain flour is a combination of all-purpose and whole wheat flours, cracked wheat and rye and whole flaxseeds. For a less chewy version, substitute whole wheat flour for the multigrain.
Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 3/4 cup quick cooking rolled oats, (not instant)
- 3/4 cup multigrain flour
- 1/4 cup wheat germ
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
Preparation
In bowl, combine 1 cup (50 mL) of the buttermilk with rolled oats; let stand for 10 minutes.
In large bowl, whisk together flour, wheat germ, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In small bowl, whisk together remaining buttermilk, egg and 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the oil. Add to dry ingredients along with rolled oats mixture; stir just until combined.
Lightly brush large nonstick skillet with some of the remaining oil; heat over medium heat. Pour in batter by 1/4 cupfuls (50 mL) for each pancake, spreading with spatula to 4-inch (10 cm) diameter; cook until underside is golden and bubbles break on top and don't fill in, about 2-1/2 minutes.
Turn pancakes and cook until underside is golden, 1 to 2 minutes. (Make-ahead: Let cool. Stack pancakes, separated by waxed paper, and freeze in resealable freezer bag for up to 2 weeks. Reheat in toaster.)
Additional information :
Tip: If you don't have buttermilk, pour 2 tbsp (25 mL) vinegar or lemon juice into 2-cup (500 mL) glass measure. Pour in enough milk to make 2 cups (500 mL). Let stand for 5 minutes; stir.
