Not sure about you...but our house is filled with the aroma of pancakes ATLEAST once a week...if not more. If you've been to our house for pancakes lately, then you also know that with pancakes, comes not only syrup and many other yummy things, but The Beach Boys!! Not sure how that tradition got started...but both our boys are VERY aware that if they hear "barb barb barb...barb barbara ann" coming from the kitchen, they are getting PANCAKES!! Pure craziness I know:) We love it!!
We have a small stock of different pancake recipes that we choose from each time...depending what we're feeling like...but this is one simple, very healthy, home made recipe that we had kinda forgotten about until the other day...so I thought I'd share it with you!
It calls for Oat Flour, which you can buy, or just make in your blender like we do. It's important to do this step first...or else your blender will get wet from the other ingredients and it won't work. Other than that it's a fool-proof recipe...and quick!
Other than all the obvious toppings...we personally love peanut butter, almond butter or bananas on our pancakes!
ENJOY!
Oatmeal Blender Pancakes
1/2 cup oat flour (or blended oats in your blender)
1/2 cup spelt flour (or flour of choice)
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Pour oats into blender and blend on high until you have oat flour.
Add all other ingredients. Blend until well mixed.
Preheat your skillet and oil lightly. Cook as you would any other pancake!
*I try to use Quick-Cooking oats...I find the traditional ones don't get enough time to cook on the pan, leaving your pancakes doughy and heavy.
**Not sure if we've ever tried to make this one into waffles...I'll keep you posted on that!
We've made this into waffles and they are delicious! I usually use 2 cups of oat flour with a little more liquid to make the consistency not too thick. They are a big heavier but very filling :) We also use banana to replace the egg!
