Oatmeal Pumpkin Spiced Pancakes

This recipe has no pumpkin in it, but has the pumpkin spices.

The original recipe didn't call for oatmeal or the spices.

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 c quick oats

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 tablespoons sugar (optional)

3/4 teaspoon salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground cloves

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1 1/2 cups milk

1 egg

2 - 3 tablespoons oil

1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix all of the dry ingredients together, then add the milk, vanilla, oil and eggs. Mix well.
Try to get some of the lumps out of the batter. Don't worry about making it perfectly smooth.

Heat a skillet on medium heat. When heated, scoop the pancake batter recipe into the frying pan with a large spoon to make individual pancakes.

You can substitute Wheat Flour for White Flour or do a 50 - 50 mix.

Enjoy
