Homemade Whole Grain Pancake Mix

3 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
4 cups white whole wheat flour
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3 Tbs sugar
3 Tbs baking powder
1 Tbs salt
1 Tbs baking soda
3/4 cup vegetable oil

To make the mix:
Grind the oats in a food processor until they're chopped fine but not a powder. Put the round oats, flours, and remaining dry ingredients into the bowl of a mixer with a paddle. Mix on slow speed, and drizzle the vegetable oil into the bowl slowly while the mixer is running. When all the oil has been added, stop the mixer and squeeze a clump of mix in your hand. If it holds together, it's just right. If it won't hold together, stir in 1 Tbs of oil at a time until the consistency is correct. Store in an airtight container indefinitely in the freezer.

To make the pancakes:
1 cup mix
1 cup buttermilk (or use 1/2 cup milk + 1/2 cup plain yogurt)
1 Tbs orange juice
1 egg

Whisk all together. Batter will be thin at first. Let sit about 15 minutes for whole grains to soak up liquid. Cook.
