Like Zesty says on his site, I think one of the key ingredients in making these pancakes so great is the ground nutmeg. For your convenience I'll post the recipe here, but I suggest you pay Zestycook.com a visit and check his site out as well.
One note about these pancakes, I used hemp milk instead regular milk, and you must absolutely make sure the dry ingredients are fresh. Old baking powder won't activate and you'll be left with lifeless, fluff-less pancakes. It's important that the nutmeg is fresh too, if you have a grinder for whole nutmeg that's even better, you'll get the best flavor from freshly ground nutmeg.
Whole Grain Oatmeal Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Oats
- 1 Cup All Purpose flour
- 1 Cup Whole-wheat flour
- 2 Tbsp. Baking powder
- 1/2 Tsp. Nutmeg
- 1/2 Tsp. Salt
- 1 1/2 Cup Milk
- 1/4 Cup Vegetable oil
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Tsp. Vanilla
- Tbsp. Honey
- Preheat a large skillet over medium to heat.
- Whisk together the oats, flours, baking powder, nutmeg and salt.
- Using the same whisk in a second bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, eggs, vanilla and honey.
- Pour the wet into the dry mixture and stir until just combined.
- Pour batter into skillet using about 1/3 cup of batter per pancake
- Once bubbles form on the outside of the pancake and do not fill in again - it is time to flip them over.
- Flip just once - plate them up.
- Enjoy!

Hi ttfn300, these pancakes are serious bad boys! Best pancakes I've ever made - I'll never use a pre-made mix again!
Hi Bren! I think we can work out a deal considering I've got some serious goodness coming from you via the USPS!!
Hey, okay! So I gotta say a couple things!!
first, i found your blog at carrots n cake--the comment you left for that woman "linda"? I just had to hand it to you-you managed to make me laugh and i totally agree with you-her comment against tina asking for votes was totally out of line. i tried to call her out as well, but not as nearly as well as you.
okay. second, i saw your blogger profile, and see that you love to experiment with food. lemme just tell u i am TOTALLY w/ you on that one. my father is a certified "foody" (he'd marry arthur avenue if it was a person) and has raised both my older sister and i to be complete food snobs.
so, basically, KUDOS to you for being awesome.
oh yeah and your pancakes look really yummy!
Sigh. Why am I too lazy to make pancakes? :( I can imagine all the different variations you can make to this recipe. What's your favorite toppings?:)
so these are the infamous whole grain oatmeal pancakes you were telling us about. they look as delicious as you described them. we're so glad that you posted the recipe. can't wait to try it out!
Hi seeleelive, thank you so much for your kind words! I do love to experiment with food and am glad to share my experiences here. Thanks!
Hi Gar, These pancakes are so easy to make and so good! I love real maple syrup, unsalted butter, and fresh raspberries and blueberries with my pancakes. I also really like to put sliced bananas or blueberries inside the pancakes.
Hi lois and clark, these are indeed the infamous pancakes! I make them just about every weekend - the batter makes 4 servings so we usually have pancakes one day during the week too!
