"Scratchy" Peachy Oatmeal Pancakes: The Kids Cook Monday

By 22 Comments

So the other morning I asked Miss Add if she wanted pancakes for breakfast and she cheered, “Sure!”

I then muttered to myself, “I need to make them from scratch because I am all out…”

And Miss Add interrupts, “I don’t want scratchy pancakes, mommy! I just want pancakes.”

So when the people over at the Kids Cook Monday asked me to do some posts on cooking with Miss Add, these “scratchy” pancakes seemed to be the perfect starter. I can’t have my kiddo not knowing what “from scratch” means…or at least my version of it… just sayin’ 😉

Prior to our “scratchy” convo the other mornin’, I was looking around for some options to make a healthier “peach-crisp-esqe” pancake with the few peaches we had left from our trip to the orchard for FREEZE-O-RAMA.

I found this blog while googling “peach oatmeal pancakes” and oh, my heavens does her food look good! Turns out she had just the kind of thing I was looking for, but I needed to alter it to fit what was in my cupboards and to lighten it up a bit.

So I grabbed Miss Add and we got down to business.

We started with 1 1/2 Cups of Heart Healthy Bisquick.

We then added 1 Cup of Oats.

Meanwhile, I placed a peach in some boiling water for about a minute to loosen the skin.

Back to the bowl… Miss Add then added 1/2 Cup of Brown Sugar to the dry goods.

I then diced up the peach and Miss Add tossed ‘er in.

Miss Add then added 1 T Cinnamon

And 1 T Vanilla Extract

Then 1 Cup of Milk

Then Mama added in 2 Egg Whites

SIDE NOTE: Psst… notice my engagement ring? That is what I do to remember something… could be anything… but it works. It is like tying a string around your finger to remember something. So, if you ever see me around with my ring turned… remind me not to forget, k?

Mommy took the reigns for a while from here. I poured 12 medium sized pancakes on the grilled and waited…

Mama always told me the cakes were ready to flip when the bubbles break…

And FLIP 😉

Miss Add came back for the plating of our masterpiece 😉

She decided to make her “scratchy” cakes into “Ernie” shapes.

Truth be told, these little guys were so flavorful and yummy that we didn’t even need syrup!

We just grabbed some chocolate milk and gobbled them up!
These definitely made the FREEZE-O-RAMA cut. Truth be told, we made up a quadruple batch to freeze (and use up the rest of our peaches;)). 
We also took some to Papaw since he is an uber peach fan.
I told Papaw that they were scratchy pancakes… and Miss Add interrupted, “No they are not scratchy pancakes, they are good pancakes!”
Guess I still have some work to do…just sayin’
