Apple Oat Second Breakfast Cakes
Tender griddle cakes made with oats, apples, milk, honey, and butter for a sweet cottage morning. Cozy, rustic, and generous enough for second breakfast. Allow about 55 minutes, including the 10-minute oat soak and cooking in batches; a small skillet may require longer.

Cook this recipe
- rolled oats-1 1/2 cups
- whole milk-1 1/4 cups
- apples-2 medium
- all-purpose flour-3/4 cup
- unsalted butter-1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons
- honey-3 tablespoons
- baking powder-2 teaspoons
- ground cinnamon-1 teaspoon
- vanilla extract-1 teaspoon
- fine salt-1/2 teaspoon
Grate the apples and melt two-thirds of the butter; let the melted butter cool slightly. Reserve equal shares of the remaining butter for the pan and optional serving. Reserve one-third of the honey for serving.
Keep fingertips clear of the box grater surface while grating apples.
Let melted butter cool slightly before adding it to the batter.
In a large bowl, stir together rolled oats and whole milk; let stand for 10 minutes so the oats soften.
Whisk the grated apples, remaining honey, cooled melted butter and vanilla into the softened oats and milk until evenly combined.
Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; fold gently until no dry streaks remain.
Warm a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with the reserved pan butter. Spread that butter across all batches; reduce the heat if the honey browns too quickly.
Keep the skillet at medium heat so the honey in the batter does not scorch.
Cook spoonfuls of batter until the edges set and the bottoms turn deep golden, about 2–3 minutes. Use about 1/4 cup per cake and leave room to flip; work in batches.
Use caution around the hot skillet surface and any butter splatter.
Flip and cook until the centers are cooked through with no wet flour batter, starting to check after about 2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, using the reserved pan butter as needed.
Use a spatula to flip the cakes away from your hands to avoid hot butter splatter.
Serve the cakes warm, sharing them evenly with the reserved honey and butter if desired.
