Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1.25 cups Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup or honey
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted) or neutral oil
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a blender or food processor, pulse the rolled oats until they reach a flour-like consistency. This should yield about 1 cup of oat flour.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, maple syrup (or honey), melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Some lumps are fine—avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the oats to absorb some moisture, which will result in thicker pancakes.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.

Step 7

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread and shape the pancake, if necessary.

Step 8

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet between batches as needed.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nut butter, or additional maple syrup.
