Harvest Grain & Nut Pancakes

Ingredients:
 
- 3/4 cup oats
- 3 tablespoons chopped blanched almonds
- 3 tablespoons chopped walnuts

 - 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour (can substitute or add some white flour, if batter is too wet)
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 to 1 1/2 cups buttermilk (start with 1 cup, and make sure the batter isn't too wet before adding another 1/2 cup)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup sugar


Directions:

Grind the oats in a blender or food processor until finely ground. Add the nuts; pulse to chop more finely. 

Combine the ground oats/nuts, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl or food processor. 

In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, egg, and sugar with an electric mixer or fork until smooth.

Combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients.

Lightly oil or spray a skillet and preheat it to medium heat. Ladle 1/3 cup of the batter onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-4 minutes per side, or until brown.
