Swedish Oatmeal Pancakes

August 31, 2020

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

These oatmeal pancakes have been an original in my family for as long as I can remember. The recipe is from a family friend, who passed it to my mom, who passed it to me. This is one of my favorite weekend treats. They are hearty and delicious, a great start to a weekend, or any day of the week!

I’ve made a modified version of this recipe that uses sourdough starter for a slightly lighter, fluffier pancake, while maintaining all the flavor in the original. Find that oatmeal sourdough pancake recipe below!

If you want to try the classic that started it all, and join in one of my family’s traditions, then here is the original recipe for Swedish Oatmeal Pancakes!

For some interesting serving ideas, be sure to check out the recommendations in the recipe notes. There are some unorthodox ideas, all of which I love! The yogurt and applesauce combination is a spin on the German classic of sour cream and applesauce topping potato pancakes. The yogurt lightens it up a bit, and I really love the flavor combination with these oatmeal pancakes. I highly recommend you give it a try!

And... we have saffron!! We planted some saffron b And... we have saffron!! We planted some saffron bulbs last fall as an experiment 🤞They grew lots of green but didn't flower, so we cut them back in the spring, turned off their water, and waited. And waited. Towards the end of summer, we started watering them again. And guess what?!? They grew back! And this time with flowers 🤗 Those red stamen you see are the saffron spice that you harvest, with tweezers 😳 Yep. Good thing we don't have too many (yet!!) They multiply every year, so we are looking forward to increasing abundace. I love it when garden expeirments work out 👏 And the pretty fall flowers are a definite bonus 👌
👉 Did you know that saffron is the most expensive spice you can get by weight?!? Makes it doubly worth the effort to grow some of your own!

Got most of our fall and winter garden planted tod Got most of our fall and winter garden planted today! 🤗 Still need to take out the eggplants and replace them with lettuce/spinach/arugula seeds ... but they are growing so well I am having a hard time pulling them out just yet 😫 ... soon. Maybe even tomorrow ... we will see.
But otherwise, so excited to have gotten all the other seedling starts into the ground, and my first round of lettuce and spinach seeds sown! The seedlings have been inside under grow lights for a couple months and were ready for their new home 🌱
If you are new to gardening in zone 9b ... we actually have a great growing season through fall and winter - all your brassicas and greens really love this time of year!

Japanese eggplant from the garden for a Sichuan in Japanese eggplant from the garden for a Sichuan inspired stirfry dinner tonight 🤗 A tip I learned about stirfrying eggplant: soak it in salt water for 10-15 minutes after cutting, before stir frying. It breaks down the tough skin making it more tender in the finished dish (similar to steaming first,  as some recipes recommend). If you want it to be crispy, coat it with cornstarch after soaking, and then shallow fry in your wok.
The eggplants are loving this 80s weather we are having in Scottsdale right now!

The sewing project is done! A poof for the living The sewing project is done! A poof for the living room 😃 It's may not be perfect but I'm pretty darn proud anyways 🤗 I am not a seamstress, this is a new skill I am working on. There are so many possibilities when one has aquired some skill with a sewing machine. Pretty pleased with how this one turned out! What will I tackle next... 🤔

#gardenfail 😭 We planted our pomegranate tree t #gardenfail 😭 We planted our pomegranate tree three years ago, and every year the fruits split. This year we had about 25 fruits on the tree, they lasted longer than usual, but this last week as our temps ramped up they ALL split!! I'm so bummed 😔 They are supposed to be EASY to grow here!! 🙈 We've tried regular watering, no extra watering, feeding, not feeding ... 🤷
Anyone out there have tips they can share for growing pomegranates in Phoenix?? #pleasehelp 😆
