My kids absolutely loved them and I love that I have another use for Quaker Oats.  I have a feeling these are healthier too than the ones I was buying as well.   These are seriously our new favorite pancakes, my kids call them “monster pancakes” because they are big and hearty!  I found this recipe on the Quaker website and there are more inspiring ideas at:  http://bit.ly/QuakerBT
