Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes

If you ever make another pancake in your lifetime, make this one. It is the best pancake that I have ever tasted! It tastes like a cross between banana bread and oatmeal cookies, yum!

Ingredients:
1/2 c. old fashioned oats
1/2 c. all purpose flour
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 oz walnuts, chopped ( I used pecans)
1/3 c. sour cream ( I used light)
1/3 c. whole milk ( I used 1%)
1 large egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 really ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 c. raisins ( I omitted)
1/4 stick butter, plus additional for buttering the skillet
Maple syrup, for drizzling

Directions:
Mix dry ingredients, the first 7, in a bowl. In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients, the next 4. Whisk the wet into the dry until just combined, then fold in the mashed bananas and the raisins. Stir in the melted butter.

Heat a griddle over medium heat and brush with the additional melted butter. Cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side. (make them small because the batter is very thin). Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired. ( they really don't need the syrup though.)
