I doubled the raisins and would recommend that. I found I needed to add more butter milk to thin the mixture just prior to grilling. One could use whole wheat floor I expect to make them even more filling!

I made it more fat-friendly and substituted apple butter for the oil- subbed real maple syrup for added sugar, also had no baking powder or baking salt on hand and it came out fine! Great served with sliced bananas and real maple syrup on top.

These didn't really taste much like pancakes. They were more like a cooked form of oatmeal, but they were still good...just not what I expected. I had some major difficulties flipping them which usually isn't a problem for me. I found that I did need to add more buttermilk than the recipe called for in order to get the right consistancy. I think that I would acc more cinnamon if I made these again, and maybe more flour and less oatmeal...

MMMMM!!!! Good, I don't know how you could improve these, just a little more cinnamon is the only thing I did, yummy! Melt the butter before you add it, the recipe is supposed to say that, but it doesn't.

This is the best pancake recipe I have ever tried! I think I have tried most of them on the internet in search of my mom and grandmother's recipes to no avail. My fiancé and I agreed that, at best, the other's were good, but nothing special. The oatmeal really adds something special to the recipe. We didn't have raisins so I omitted them and topped them with apples sautéed in a pat of butter and just a bit of cinnamon (which I have done with other pancakes). I halved the recipe and the two of us ate them all! YUM! Don't wait until Christmas to try these easy delicious pancakes! Will make again and again...they are definitely worth the wait! Thanks so much for sharing! (:

For those that love pancakes, this is a great recipe. I tried them recently, and have prepared them several times since there. I adjusted the recipe to my family's taste by doubling the amount of cinnamon and raisins in the original recipe. It's also a great way to get children to eat oatmeal!
