Oatmeal Pancakes

2 eggs
2.25 C buttermilk
1/4 C oil
1 C old fashioned oats
1 C whole wheat flour
1/4 C wheat germ
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2-1 tsp cinnamon (I usually use 1 tsp)
1 Tbs honey

Beat together first 3 ingredients. Add remaining ingredients and stir until just well blended. Fry on a hot griddle.

Convert recipe for waffles by using 1/2 cup of oil (as opposed to the 1/4 C)

Makes 20 four inch pancakes (1/4 C batter per pancake), generally serves 3-4 people if it's there isn't much additional food.

note: I find that the batter makes better pancakes if it's allowed to sit for a few min. before cooking- that gives the oats some time to absorb some of the liquid. Otherwise, the batter is too thin. If you're in a rush, you can get away with adding a little more flour.
