Ingredients

• 1 cup Oat bran
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat bran, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar. Whisk to blend the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes dense.

Step 4

Fold in the chopped pecans to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or oil.

Step 6

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
