Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar or honey
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let sit for 10 minutes to soften the oats.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla to the oat mixture, stirring to combine.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
Notes
For a naturally sweet twist, add mashed banana to the batter.
Make them gluten-free by using gluten-free all-purpose flour.
