I used skim milk rather than the water, ground the oats after measuring, used whole wheat flour and olive oil. Very good smothered in apple sauce! -
Man, I thought these were delicious! I followed the recipe exactly (no apples). I tried three toppings: Strawberry jam w/sprinkle of confectioner's sugar(best), smothered in apple sauce (yummy!), and maple-flavored syrup (not so hot). -
Oh my goodness these are amazing!!! I hate the texture of oatmeal but I keep looking for ways to eat more of its healthy goodness. These are filling and delicious! I added a bit more water than it called for and let the batter soak for a few minutes before dropping the batter on the griddle. This softens the oats a bit before cooking and gives them a great texture. -
I loved this recipe!! I always thought you needed milk, not water, for waffles-but it worked out fine! I cut the recipe by a quarter & used 1/2 cup rolled oats (that made one big waffle-perfect for a one person meal), sugar free syrup for the molasses, applesauce for the oil, no salt & added 1 tsp cinnamon & 1/4 tsp vanilla. I also only used 1/2 tsp baking powder-which worked fine. I used my immersion blender to make it as smooth as possible-it's probably not as great as a food processor but it does the job well enough for me! I love this smeared with natural peanut butter, sliced bananas & sugar free syrup. Delicious!! -
Wildheart! These are lovely, VERY hearty pancakes. I often shirk from traditional pancake recipes, as I have to eat quite a few to fill up. These are like a hot bowl of oatmeal, in disguise of a pancake - awesome! I'm going to add some spices, like ginger and cinnamon and see how they turn out. I'll be passing this recipe along to my diabetic mom. Thanks!

DELICIOUS! I made these in the blender, first grinding the oatmeal, adding the remaining dry ingredients (including cinnamon) and then the wet (used almond milk instead of water) with about half of a large Granny Smith apple. I served these with some thinly sliced microwaved apples and cinnamon syrup. SO yummy!

I made these with old fashioned oats and whole wheat flour. I also used apple sauce in place of the oil and added pecans and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. In the end the batter was very thick, so I added about another 1/3 c water. These were very good and filling. -
Loved the pancakes! My only complaint was that they started to fall apart once syrup was on them... But they were still delicious, and I plan on trying them again, repeatedly, with different toppings/syrups. The kiddos loved them too, and asked me to make more so we could freeze them for later. That makes them a major thumbs up!<br/>Oops, forgot to mention, I added a whole Granny Smith apple, peeled and cubed, and cinnamon. Also substituted honey for the molasses.

I was hoping for better with these but that's ok, they were worth trying. I modified it quite a bit though- I only use rolled oats, so I put all the dry stuff in the food processor, used milk instead of water, and canola oil instead of corn. Not bad.

Still in West Virginia but we've moved a few miles away, down to the county capitol. It's a compromise: bigger than our last town but smalelr than the "big city" of Cumberland MD, right up the road. Jobs are not that plentiful here so I am fortunate to be able to work at home (I'm a writer). My passion is cooking and feeding people family well....my pet peeve is the family court systems in America......my love is for emergency medicine and the people that make survival in a crisis possible
