When I back with flannel, I do prewash and it is usually for a baby. So I don't use batting, as the flannel provides the warmth, and the moms like being able to throw it in the washer/dryer and not worrying about it being too heavy to go through the spin cycle. Some new washing machines can't handle the extra weight of batting. I know as I have one that won't handle anything heavy. Didn't know that when I bought it. I think you can add batting or not, depending on your preference.
