1 tablespoon vital wheat gluten
¼ cup winter squash (Pureed. Can be found in the freezer aisle next to the frozen spinach)
2 tablespoons sugar (or honey)

1
Measure and combine dry ingredients into one bowl.
2
Mix to combine ingredients well.
3
Measure and combine wet ingredients in another bowl.

Overmixing will make a tough pancake.
8
Set bowl aside for at least 10 minutes.
9
The oats need some time to get soft and incorporate well into the batter.
10
In the meantime, turn on a griddle to 325 degrees or a large skillet to about medium heat.
11
Apply a thin layer of oil to the griddle or skillet.
12
(I pour a blob of oil on there and then wipe gelty with a paper towel so there is just a thin film left).
13
Stir the batter gently a couple of times to redistribute the oats in the batter and pour pancake batter onto preheated griddle with a scant 1/4 cup measure.
14
When small bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, it's time to flip (about 2 or 3 minutes per side).
15
Serve with maple syrup or any other yummy pancake topping.
16
To avoid sugar, try peanut butter or cream cheese.
