Ingredients

1/2 cup quick-cooking oats

1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk

1/2 cup skim milk

2 egg whites

1 tablespoon canola oil

2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Preparation

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the oats, buttermilk, and milk. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes to let the oatmeal soften.
  2. Beat in the egg whites and oil and mix well. Add the sugar, salt, and cinnamon, then the baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Stir just until moistened.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled or nonstick griddle over medium-high heat (375 degrees for electric frying pan). For each pancake, pour about 1/8 cup batter onto the griddle. Turn when the tops are covered with bubbles and the edges look cooked. Turn only once.
