Grain and Nut Whole Wheat Pancakes

01Method

1. 1

   Process the oats in a blender or food processor until they reach a fine flour-like texture. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the ground oats, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, beat together the buttermilk, milk, oil, egg, and sugar with an electric mixer until well combined and smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold together with just a few strokes — do not overmix. Fold in the walnuts.

3. 3

   Lightly grease a skillet or griddle and warm it over medium heat. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface and cook until golden brown, about 2 to 4 minutes per side.
