Oatmeal Buttermilk Pancakes

Though pancakes taste best fresh from the griddle, they can be frozen, thawed, reheated, and enjoyed at a later time. To freeze, place cooled pancakes between layers of wax paper, then wrap in aluminum foil or a plastic freezer bag. To enjoy, remove from freezer and let thaw (or defrost in microwave). Reheat briefly in a toaster oven, a cool oven (200 F.), or heat for a few seconds in the microwave.
