This is our favorite “go to” pancake batter recipe. It makes perfect, delicious fluffy pancakes every
time. You can top the batter with whatever fruit is in season. In the winter we use frozen berries. Guest favorites are blueberries or raspberries, but we have used other fruits and nuts including bananas, walnuts, pecans, peaches, plums and apples. This batter has to rest for at least 30 minutes before using to allow the oatmeal to absorb the liquid. We often make it the night before and refrigerate overnight. If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk before using.
