Whole-Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes

These whole-wheat oat pancakes offer a wholesome and hearty twist on a classic vegetarian breakfast favourite. By soaking the quick-cooking oats in tangy buttermilk, the texture becomes wonderfully tender, while the addition of cinnamon and nutmeg provides a subtle, warming aroma. The use of whole-wheat flour adds a nutritional boost and a pleasant nutty depth that pairs perfectly with the natural sweetness of the brown sugar.

Ideal for a relaxed weekend brunch or a nutritious midweek start, this recipe is designed to be both simple and satisfying. The batter comes together quickly, producing light and fluffy pancakes that are delicious when topped with fresh sliced bananas or a drizzle of honey. This dish is an excellent choice for those seeking a fibre-rich, homemade alternative to standard pancakes without compromising on flavour.

How to make Whole-Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes

Soak oats in 180ml buttermilk 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.

Stir egg, butter, brown sugar, remaining 180ml plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk, and oat mixture into dry ingredients until just combined.

Heat a griddle over medium heat until hot and lightly brush with oil. Working in batches, pour 60ml batter per pancake onto griddle and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are golden-brown, about 1 minute. Flip with a spatula and cook other side, about 1 minute more. (Lightly oil griddle between batches.)
