My boys are so spoiled. Every weekend they want me to make some huge fancy breakfast of homemade pancakes, syrup, bacon, cut up fruit and OJ. Since they pester me nonstop about it, sometimes I give in…

…but only because I want a pancake too, ha ha!
These pancakes are awesome because they’re low in fat and high in protein. You can’t even tell there’s oats in them! They really do taste delicious and have a wonderful thick texture that I think makes them perfect. If you’ve never tried oatmeal pancakes before, give this recipe a try this weekend! If you have kids, they will thank you! 😉
