Looking for a quick, healthy, and delicious breakfast? These oat pancakes are perfect! They are sugar-free, flour-free, and can be made in just five minutes. Follow the simple steps below to create a nutritious meal for yourself or your loved ones.
Ingredients:
2 cups oatmeal (220g)
½ teaspoon salt (3g)
4 large eggs
1 cup warm milk (250ml)
3 ½ tablespoons butter, melted (50g)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (or vanillin)
1 cup water (250ml)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the oatmeal base:
Begin by blending the oatmeal in a food processor or blender to create a fine oat flour. This will ensure smooth and fluffy pancakes.
2. Mix the wet ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, warm milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and water together until well combined.
3. Combine dry and wet ingredients:
Gradually add the oat flour and salt to the wet mixture. Stir gently to avoid lumps, ensuring the batter has a smooth and slightly thick consistency.
4. Rest the batter:
Allow the batter to rest for 2-3 minutes. This gives the oats time to absorb the liquid, making the pancakes fluffier.
5. Heat your skillet:
Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil.
6. Cook the pancakes:
Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
7. Serve and enjoy:
Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm. You can top them with fresh fruit, unsweetened yogurt, or a drizzle of honey for added flavor (optional).
Tips for Success:
If the batter is too thick, add a little more water or milk to reach the desired consistency.
For an extra protein boost, you can add a tablespoon of chia seeds or ground flaxseeds.
Enjoy your healthy oat pancakes!
