Power Oatmeal Pancakes

I am a breakfast fan (pancakes, waffles, french toast or anything you put syrup on). The Eat Clean Diet seems to have a lot of pancake recipes, so I’m working my way through them slowly. My husband isn’t a huge pancake fan or I would make a different one each day to try.
The ingredients in this recipe are a far cry from sounding like it will make something amazing, but I assure you, it does. These pancakes are really good (and extremely healthy). I added a bit more cinnamon than the recipe called for and afterward thought that it would be a good idea to add some vanilla extract (for added flavor). I’ll have to try that next time. The pancakes were a good size and the portion size is two pancakes. YUM!
