Applesauce is a sub for oil. Not sure about the pumpkin...

As for the oats, you could also put them in a coffee bean grinder and make oat flour - just substitute the oat flour for some of the flour in a "regular" recipe.

NO idea why you need/want yeast - never heard of yeasting a pancake.

Will you be trying it again? Because I need you to figure it out so I can replicate :D - still have a pumpkin smush in the freezer to be used up... TIA

Okay, here's what I did:

  • 1 pk yeast proofed with 1/4 C water and 1/2 tsp sugar until foamy
  • 1/2 C of steel-cut oats made with 1 C water
  • 1/4 C milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 C applesauce
  • 1 C pumpkin
  • 2 C whole wheat pastry flour
  • 2 T honey
  • 1/4 C oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

It made weird pancakes (Apollo thought they were delicious, but he licks his butt so....:shrug:). They were tasty, but gooey in the middle rather than pancakey.

However, when I used the batter in the Belgian waffle maker.....SCORE!

Not sure why there would be such a difference in outcome but there was. If I knew more about baking type of things I'd be able to figure it out. But I'm happy with the waffles. :yay:
You need duck eggs.. chicken eggs are for rookie cooks that don't know better.. how many dozen should I put you down for? (I'll even deliver)
