Overnight Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes

June 1, 2015


Two things I everyone loves: pancakes for breakfast and sleeping in. If it wasn’t for the fact I’d have to get out of bed earlier, I would have pancakes for breakfast erreday. Instead, we have pancakes for dinner more often than I should probably admit. Nothing wrong with a simple, easy meal, right?

By some miracle, Friday Kelly was a total gem and mixed up pancake batter for Saturday morning Kelly. Normally, I’m constantly screwing over future Kelly , (uhh, yeah, I can totally stay up late catching up on GoT, future Kelly will totally understand) but for once I was thinking ahead. Plus, letting the oats soak overnight made for a much more delicious pancake. Soft and tender like an oatmeal cookie.

I sweetened these cookie cakes with honey to play up the tasty honey-sweetened almond milk we had, and it’s a definite winning combination with the oats and cinnamon. Do future you a favorite and mix up this batter tonight. It only takes a few minutes and it’ll make up for all the times you leave your future-self with extra work or not enough sleep.

    I adore pancakes (understatement) and I am always looking for new healthy recipes – this is exactly the type of pancake I love!!!

    I so agree! I would be eating pancakes all the time for breakfast if someone else would make them for me! This is genius to make the pancake batter the night before! Although, the past me is almost as lazy as the future me! These are really making me want pancakes though, so maybe I should mix some up right now 🙂
