Submitted by Chief Jack

"These are a hit at the fire station... They are a little on the heavy side, but they have an excellent flavor and lots of fiber. Adding more baking powder may lighten them up if that’s what you want, but I think they’re great as is."

1. Grind about a cup of rolled oats to get the 3/4 cup of course flour.
2. Combine all the dry ingredients and mix well.
3. Mix the wets together and add to the dry.
4. Mix ‘till blended, but don’t overwork it.
5. If it’s a little thick, you can thin it with a little water.
6. Spoon the batter onto your griddle and cook to the dark side of golden.
7. I haven’t tried it yet, but thinned down a little, this batter should make a pretty substantial pancake too!
