Sweet Potato (or Pumpkin) Oatmeal Pancakes

So I wanted to make pancakes with stuff I had on hand but make them packed full of nutrition (as best as I could).  I think this recipe tastes pretty good but still deciding if I need to add more sweet potato puree or not.  My baby is just starting to eat some finger foods and pancakes do the trick!! I make them up the night before and feed her small bits in the morning.  I top them with a little butter before cutting them up and then  drizzle a tiny bit (like one spoon full) of organic real maple syrup on them!  She loves pancakes but she also loves to share with our dogs!  She seemed to like these so hopefully others will too!! FYI: I am not a chef, just a home cook that likes to try new things.  Please refrain from bashing my recipes but I will take friendly suggestions!

2 cups Bisquick baking & pancake mix
1/2 cup old fashion oats
2 eggs
1/2 cup sweet potato puree (or pumpkin puree from a can)
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp. sugar

Stir to combine.

Spray pan w/ cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.

Spoon about a 1/4 batter into the pan.  Flip when the edges become dry/cooked.  Takes a couple minutes per pancake or so. 

This made approx. 8 medium size pancakes.

  1. I have decided this batter might be best made the night before cooking. The oatmeal has time to soften up in the batter. I think I might try that next time. I may add some vanilla too just to see what that tastes like.
