Even though its cold, it sure is pretty!
This past week, it seems as if everything has started to pick up — homework, work, social gatherings…By the time today hit, I decided it was time for a break before I hit the ground running again on Monday. Therefore I decided to start my day with one of my favorite foods in the world — pancakes! However, in honor of this February challenge, I decided to add a little oat twist. They require minimal ingredients and take about 10 minutes to prep: win-win!
This recipe was adapted from one I found on Pinterest, and just lIke with any other pancake recipe, feel free to add in your own mix-ins.
