Oat Flour Gluten Free Pancakes

I had an "aha" moment a few years back when I decided to grind my own oats to make oat flour. I usually have a serving of oatmeal for breakfast but I was really craving some pancakes one Sunday morning. I didn't want to have white flour pancakes so I decided to grind some oats and try a gluten free pancake recipe. I've been making these ever since
