Cinnamon-Oatmeal Blueberry Pancakes

Cinnamon-Oatmeal Blueberry Pancakes

Ingredients:

2 cups "complete" pancake mix (requires adding only water)

1/4 cup quick (not instant) oats

1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 cups water

1 teaspoon plain vegetable oil, for cooking

1 cup blueberries, or to taste, fresh or frozen

1 cup maple syrup for serving, or to taste

***

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a medium mixing bowl, place the pancake mix, oats and the cinnamon. Stir to mix well. Add the water and stir just until the lumps disappear. (batter will be slightly lumpy) Heat the oil on medium-high in an extra deep 12 inch skillet or pancake griddle. Pour about 1/4 cup batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake, cooking three to four per batch. (More or less batter may be used for each pancake as desired.) Immediately sprinkle some blueberries on top of each pancake. Cook 1 too 1 1/2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Place the cooked pancakes in the warm oven and continue to cook in batches until all of the batter is used. Serve at once with maple syrup, if desired.
