Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Pancakes

2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup flour
2 cups buttermilk
2 Tbs sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick), melted and cooled
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 tsp salt

In a bowl, combine oats and buttermilk; stir to blend well. Cover and refrigerate until the next day.

Just before cooking, add the eggs, butter, and raisins (if desired); stir just to blend. In another bowl, stir together the dry ingredients; add to the oat mixture and stir just until moistened. If the batter seems too thick, add more buttermilk (up to 3 tablespoons). Batter will be thicker than regular pancakes. Preheat a griddle and grease lightly. Spoon batter onto preheated griddle; Cook until tops are bubbly and appear dry; turn and cook the other side until brown.

Serve with warm syrup or jam.

Makes about 18 pancakes.
