OATMEAL PANCAKES

1/4 cup all purpose flour

1 cup quick cooking oats

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup nonfat buttermilk

2 teaspoons butter, melted

1 large egg

cooking spray

Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife.  Combine the first seven ingredients in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.  Combine buttermilk, butter and egg in a  small bowl.  Add to the flour mixture, stirring just until moist.  Heat a nonstick griddle over medium heat.  Coat griddle with cooking spray.  Spoon about 2-1/2 tablespoons batter per pancake onto griddle.  Turn pancakes over when tops are covered with bubbles; cook until bottoms are lightly browned.

Serve with maple syrup and blueberries, if desired.

ENJOY!
