INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup buttermilk (or skim milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice)
- 2/3 cup slow-cooking rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unprocessed wheat bran
- 2 egg whites or 1 egg
- 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour, preferably stoneground
- 1 teaspoon fructose
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- Vegetable oil or vegetable oil cooking spray

DIRECTIONS
Combine milk, oats, and bran in a large bowl. Let stand
until rolled oats soften. Add egg and blend. Mix in flour,
fructose, salt, and baking soda.

Grease a griddle or frying pan with a little vegetable oil or
vegetable oil spray and set over medium-high heat. Pour about
1/4 cup batter into the pan and cook for about 3 minutes or until
bubbles form on top and the edges begin to look dry.

Turn the pancake with a spatula and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or
until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining
batter. Serve hot with unsweetened jam or syrup.
