- Pour Batter: Using a â…“-cup measuring cup, pour the pancake batter onto the heated griddle in small circles to form pancakes.
- Cook First Side: Cook the pancakes for about 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles begin to form on the surface and edges look set, indicating readiness to flip.
- Flip Pancakes: Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until both sides are golden brown and cooked through.

Notes
- Using rolled oats gives the pancakes a hearty texture; you can substitute with quick oats but the texture will be softer.
- The batter can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours; stir before cooking.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey or using other natural sweeteners.
- Ensure the skillet is properly heated before pouring batter to achieve the best texture and browning.
