Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Pancakes are an easy, healthy, delicious breakfast treat that taste like oatmeal raisin cookies. Yum! They are made with the hearty goodness of oatmeal and whole wheat flour, sweetness from brown sugar and raisins and buttermilk, which of course makes everything good.
The first morning after I made these, Adam polished off six pancakes. In fact, he ate that first batch so quickly, I wasn’t able to get any pictures. Because he loved them so, I made another batch a couple days later. Fortunately, one afternoon I found myself with three pancakes and a good napper, so I was able to quickly snap some pics to share this wonderful recipe with you!
Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Pancakes
Yields: 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups quick oats
- 2 cups buttermilk
- ½ cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup raisins
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine oats and buttermilk and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.
- After 5 minutes, add eggs, oil and vanilla to buttermilk mixture, whisking until combined.
- Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture, stirring until just moistened (Note: batter may be lumpy). Add raisins, folding until combined. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Preheat nonstick skillet to medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
- Spoon batter onto skillet by the ¼ cupful (adjust to desired size) (Note: If batter is a little thick, use the back of your spoon to spread/shape the pancakes). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until bubbles form and the edges look set. Flip pancakes and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden.

I would eat pancakes every day. 😉 These look so yummy! I think I’ll make similar ones for dinner.
I love your twist on a classic! Pancakes are already one of my favorite breakfast foods, but it’s always fun to make something different than the normal. I will definitely have to try this recipe, thanks for sharing 🙂

I love oatmeal raisin cookies! I’ve made an oatmeal raisin breakfast cookie, but never a pancake. Definitely need to give this a try!
Yessssss. Pancakes that taste like cookies and are healthy are the ultimate win!
What a great idea! I’ve seen a lot of pancake variations, but never this one. Must try these next weekend.
Those pancakes look healthy enough to eat three times a week.
