hearty pancakes

My cooking repertoire reached its limit with 
frozen pizzas & nuked veggies [not our usual].

We were without a stove/oven for nearly two weeks due to the move,

so I was anxious to get cooking once our stove was finally installed.

Although relying on a microwave & charcoal grill 

was something my husband & I found a creative challenge at first, 

we were excited to start cooking again. 

The kitchen is still under construction 

[can't wait to share some before & after pics], so

 our food selection was somewhat limited.

So, what did I cook once the stove was hooked up?

Pancakes [and eggs]...for dinner!

I found this recipe & modified based on

what I already had in the kitchen.

It turned out so well [I could tell even from the first ones off

the griddle], I just had to share!

ingredients

1 cup quick cooking regular rolled oats

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

3/4 tablespoon baking powder

1/4 cup dry non-fat milk powder

1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided

1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar

1/3 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup water

directions

Preheat a lightly greased griddle over medium low heat.

In a large bowl, mix quick cooking oats, flour, 

whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, dry milk powder, 

salt, cinnamon and cream of tartar.

In a small bowl, beat together vegetable oil and eggs. 

Pour into the oats mixture, alternating with water, 

and mix thoroughly, creating a batter.

Pour batter, 1/4 cup at a time, onto the prepared griddle. 

Cook on both sides until golden brown, 

flipping when the surface begins to bubble.
It made more than enough for my husband & I to eat for dinner,
about 15-16 flapjacks [maybe 5" in diameter].
