These Whole Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes are made with healthy ingredients like oats, whole wheat flour and yogurt, so they’re dense, hearty and filling!

Hi Friends!

It’s time for another recipe refresher! I first published this recipe over 2 years ago and it’s still my go-to pancake recipe, so I think that warrants re-sharing it.  These Whole Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes are not for everyone. If fluffy Bisquick-style pancakes are your thing (like my hubby), these probably aren’t for you. I love them because they’re dense, hearty, filling and packed with healthy ingredients!

Made with healthy ingredients like oats, whole wheat flour and yogurt, these pancakes make a great breakfast. Make an extra batch to freezer for busy mornings!

I made a batch of these to snack on yesterday so I thought I’d snap a few updated pics and share the goodness with all of you.

Here’s the recipe:

Dense, hearty pancakes packed with good-for-you ingredients!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2/3 cup yogurt (greek or regular, flavored or plain)
  • 3 Tbsp milk
  • 1 Tbsp applesauce
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 c white whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 c rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed (optional)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Mix the wet ingredients in a small bowl.
  2. Add the dry ingredients and stir until just combined
  3. Cook on a hot griddle or pan, flipping several times to make sure they’re cooked all the way through.

This usually makes about 8 pancakes. Batter will be thick! Make sure you flip them a few times to let them cook all the way through!

I love them topped with nut butter and fresh fruit, but I also eat them plain before workouts and occasionally make my own fruit syrup to drizzle on top!

Made with healthy ingredients like oats, whole wheat flour and yogurt, these pancakes make a great breakfast. Make an extra batch to freezer for busy mornings!

Feel free to have fun with mix-ins as well! Add some chia seeds, chocolate chips, chopped almonds or fresh fruit to the batter to change things up!

  4. Looks great, will definitely try this soon. Most of my healthy pancake options have failed so far, so fingers crossed!!

    Just one thing: could I swap the baking soda with baking powder or just leave it out?

    Love, Wanda

  11. They may not be fluffy Bisquick style, but they sound like they have tons of texture and flavor! I can see making these and freezing them to have on hand as a pre-run snack or for a quick school morning breakfast for the kids.
