     I think these would be a little bland if the recipe was followed strictly, but they were delicious when I followed the suggestions above: applesauce instead of olive oil, and a little brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. I served these with fresh strawberries. - 9/15/08

     If you add splenda, pumpkin pie spice, a bit of low calorie apple sauce for some added moisture and extra baking powder, this is a wonderful breakfast choice. Comes out fluffier and softer. It keeps me full and gives me the energy I need to complete my workout in the morning. Will make often. - 8/20/08

     I've made these twice. The first time i followed the recipe exactly and they were okay but a bit bland and heavy but very filling. The next time i added 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 cup cooked pumpkin and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice. They were very nice with low sugar apple butter on top. I will make these again. - 8/19/08

     How many of the pancakes (using 1/4 cup) make a serving? Usually it's 2, but I thought you might have figured it differently. - 7/27/08

    Yes, there are 2 pancakes in a serving. When I made them yesterday, the recipe yielded 8 pancakes. I use a generous 1/4 cup to drop them. They are very filling for the calories!

     I LOVE oatmeal, and I love these! I put a tiny bit of brown sugar and some cinnamon in mine as well as a splenda packet. I'd def make them again, next time I'm going to add some diced apples. They remind me of those oatmeal breakfast bars by quaker i think, except these are less sugary/better for u. - 8/21/08

     I make these all the time now for myself and my kids! Everyone loves them!!! For a special treat for the kids sometimes I add a couple of chocolate chips! yes that adds calories but they love them!!! - 8/22/08

     A favorite here. We topped it with steamed cinnamon apples - 1/9/09

     Everyone is right they are bland. I just got mine out the pan and tried one, but ya know, its not always about flavor. I like them b/c they are filling and that's what i am looking for something to keep me full until lunchtime and this will do it. i'd make them again and freeze some for later. - 8/11/08

     Very good oatmeal pancakes! Follow the recipe, and make sure to use a spatula to spread the mix out on the skillet as it doesn't spread by itself. Will make often. - 8/3/08

     I will grind the oatmeal for a smoother texture. I'll also add bananas and nuts with some lite maple syrup. Yum. - 8/10/08

     I thought this was really pretty good. I did add some splenda, some vanilla extract, some cinnamon, and some Brummel and brown at the end, but I wouldn't have known where to start without this recipe. The pancakes I cooked were good and filling. - 7/20/09
  • FAYEGODBEY
     Like recipe. I mix milk and oatmeat and let sit in fridge overnight. Also I add 1T of Splenda. - 5/12/09
  • LILANEY
     I add pumpkin pie spice and about a tbsp of Splenda and that took cake of the 'bland' taste. A pinch more baking soda and they came out a bit fluffier as well. Cheers! - 8/19/08

     I made this for breakfast this morning, and it was terrific! The only reason I didn't give it a five star rating was because I took the advice of others who tried it and added 1 tbs. of natural cane sugar, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. - 2/8/09

     Delicious! We made this for a last minute dinner tonight and really enjoyed them. We have 2 portions in the freezer now. We did add blueberries and vanilla. I had it with my Dannon Light & Fit Yogurt (peach) and my husband had maple syrup. Thanks! - 8/4/08
  • NEWBALANCED
     These turned out very good...and easy! I added blueberries and cinnamon to the mixture. They are hearty pancakes. Although they definently needed some toppings...I used lite syrup. - 8/1/08

     I made these today with the addition of 4 tablespoons of sugar free rasberry jam and i used 1 tablespoon of canola oil instead, i also rounded out the measurements to 8 ounces of 2% milk and 100 grams each of the flour and oats, came out prefecly, cooked them low and slow, were really moist. - 5/12/09

     I added a sprinkle of salt to the batter and some cinnamon. My daughter who does not like oatmeal liked this pancake, the recipe made 5 but 1 was enough for my daughter, and they refrigerate and heat up nicely. A keeper for us. - 9/14/08

     Something this awful has _got_ to be good for you . I followed the recipe exactly and found the pancakes to be bland and heavy. My first thought was to add sugar (or Splenda) the next time. I recommend trying the variations others have posted. - 8/31/08
  • TRISHA181
     Made the pancakes this morning for breakfast. I added fresh blueberries as you recommended - I loved it! - 8/5/08

     Coming from a chef, this is the worst pancake recipe ever. The batter was way too thick, very heavy and extremely bland. This is the first recipe i've followed in a long time to see how online recipes are. I just made an account to warn people in the future to not follow this awful recipe. - 5/9/13

     These were a huge hit among my kids. They are much more filling and healthier than regular pancakes. These are going to replace Aunt Jemima pancake mix. I am going to have fun with the variances given above. Thanks for sharing. - 1/15/11

     Made these for dinner with scrambled eggs. Yummy and incredibly filling. No urge to snack for me that night. Thanks for sharing! - 6/21/10

     Very bland - kind of like eating cardboard. Tried to improve with a little Splenda. Might be better with vanilla soy milk. Won't make again. - 8/16/08
  • RAVENSVOICE
     I used vanilla almond milk rather than cow's milk, and added oat bran for even more fiber, and a little salt so that they were savory - quite nice with sliced turkey breast. I cannot imagine liking them with traditional "pancake" things like fruit or syrup. - 8/15/08
