Ingredients

Instructions

1. Soak Oats in Buttermilk 🥣

   • In a large bowl, combine rolled oats and buttermilk.
   • Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight. This step allows the oats to absorb the buttermilk, creating a creamy and tender texture for your pancakes. 😋

2. Prepare the Batter 🥞

   • The next day, add canola oil, eggs, and grated apple to the oat mixture.
   • Mix until well combined, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients 🌾

   • In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, white sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt.
   • Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the oat mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes.

4. Heat the Pan 🍳

   • Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium-high heat.
   • Lightly spray with vegetable oil or brush with melted butter.

5. Cook the Pancakes 🥞

   • Pour 4-inch round pools of batter onto the hot pan.
   • Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
   • Adjust the heat as needed to ensure even cooking.

6. Keep Warm 🔥

   • As you cook the pancakes, keep them warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven.
   • This ensures that all pancakes are served hot and fresh.

7. Serve and Enjoy 🍴

   • Serve these delightful oat and apple pancakes with your favorite toppings!
   • Options include butter and applesauce for a cozy, homey flavor, or drizzle with maple syrup for a classic touch.
