Pear And Almond Swedish Pancakes


Filled with oats, pears and almonds, these pancakes are hearty and slightly sweet. i originally got this recipe from the old farmers almanac everyday cookbook and streamlined it a bit for our family. the presentation is pretty and i love all the healthy ingredients. we serve with homemade maple syrup.

Steps


In a large bowl , combine the oats and 2 cups of buttermilk.
Soak for at least 15 minutes.
In a medium bowl , combine the dry ingredients and stir them into the oat mixture.
Mix in the eggs and melted butter.
Batter should be thick.
Add 1 - 2 tablespoons buttermilk if it is too thick to pour.
On a nonstick griddle or skillet greased with vegetable oil , pour the batter in 1 / 4 cup portions.
Place a few pear slices and almonds on each pancake.
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes , or until bottoms are golden brown.
Gently turn the pancakes over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes more or until brown.
Grease the griddle as needed to cook the rest.
