Sue Gregg's Oatmeal Blender Waffles or Pancakes

This is a wonderful Sue Gregg pancake and waffle recipe that I found through the Passionate Homemaking site. I thought the oats would have less of a flavor, but this tasted like... oatmeal! Cooked on the griddle or in the waffle iron, dripping with butter and topped with real maple syrup, they were wonderful!

Ingredients
  

Overnight Batter
  • 1 ½ to 1 ¾ cups liquid such as buttermilk or kefir (or non-dairy alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups uncooked rolled oats
Before Baking
  • 1 egg
  • some additional liquid (optional, if batter needs thinning)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt, to taste

Method
 

  1. Place the buttermilk or kefir, olive oil, vanilla, and rolled oats in a blender; blend at highest speed for 3 minutes.
  2. The batter should always swirl about a vortex in the blender. If it doesn't, slowly add more liquid until the hole reappears. This is the secret to light and tender waffles. Batter for pancakes may be thicker, but keep batter relatively thin and keep it churning.
  3. Cover blender; let stand at room temperature overnight or 12 to 24 hours.
  4. Preheat waffle iron at highest temperature, or griddle on medium high.
  5. Just before baking, add the egg and any additional liquid needed (if batter needs thinning for vortex or churning) and reblend on highest speed for 1 minute.
  6. Blend in the baking powder, baking soda, and salt thoroughly, but briefly (assisted with a rubber spatula, if needed).
  7. For waffles, pour batter onto hot waffle iron, sprayed with olive oil. Bake about 3 ½ to 4 minutes in waffle iron until crispy.
  8. For pancakes, pour onto hot griddle. Cook until bubbles pop on the surface, then flip and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes longer, or until browned.
