I just wanted to share this delicious recipe that is our family favorite. The addition of the oat flour makes for a very light and fluffy whole grain pancake.

We had my reservations about using whole wheat flour, but these pancakes turned out wonderfully! They have a great whole grain texture - not tough at all - and your picky family members will like them!
