Leftover Porridge Pancakes

 

This recipe makes about 20 3 1/2inch pancakes. Suzanne's Version from Joy of Cooking.

 

Allergen Free of: Peanuts, Sesame, Mustard, Shellfish, Fish, Soy, Nuts, can be made with gluten free flour & oats.

 

Whisk together:

1/2 cup all-purpose or gluten free flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

 

Beat in a separate bowl:

2 eggs

Stir in:

1 1/2 cups cooked oatmeal

1/2 cup milk or buttermilk

2 tablespoons melted butter or bacon drippings

 

Quickly stir this mixture into the dry ingredients. The batter may appear lumpy.

 

To cook, make sure your pan is ready, start on medium heat - I like to melt 1/2-1 tablespoon of butter and then  add a few drops of cold water - if the water bounces and sputters, the pan is ready to use. Spoon batter in(I sometimes use a soup laddle), based on the size of pancake you'd like. When they start to bubble (2-3mins), it's time to flip.

 

These pancakes are perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner & a great way to use up leftover porridge. You can also store leftover pancakes in the fridge or freeze them. Enjoy!
