It’s going to be a really fun weekend for me because my son is turning 6! He’s going to have a little party and has requested pokemon cards for his birthday present (eye roll). I still think of him as a baby but he’s going to be 6…he’s going to be in first grade. He’s going to be at school all day like a big kid. No, I guess he’s not a baby anymore. One thing that I will be making for him before he’s gone all day at school is these oatmeal cinnamon pancakes. They are absolutely delicious and since I’ve been making these lately my daughter won’t even eat any other kind. The best part is I make a big huge batch of the pancake mix and then when we’re in a hurry in the morning I can cook these up in no time.
I love the texture and taste of these pancakes. They stick with you thanks to the whole wheat flour and the oatmeal. We serve ours with peanut butter and syrup on top. Most of the time I don’t really care for pancakes but whenever I make these I have a hard time saying no!
This pancake mix can also make a really great gift. Just fill a mason jar full of the mix and then print off the label below and stick it on the lid. (Right click on the image and copy it. Paste it onto a word document and resize as necessary).

Hi Karen , this recipe sounds wonderful and I’m excited to try it but I was wondering if you possibly know the Weight Watchers Smart points equivalent to a serving? Thank you
No I’m sorry I am not familiar with WW smart points 🙁
We could figure it for ourselves if we had some idea how many breakfast batches were in the big batch and how many 1/2 cup(?) pancakes we could get with each mix. Can we get some guidance?
