Hearty Oatmeal Pancakes

Ingredients

Rolled oats

1 cup

All-purpose flour

1/2 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Milk

1 cup

Egg

1, large

Honey

2 tablespoons

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Vegetable oil

2 tablespoons (plus more for cooking)

Instructions

1. In a blender or food processor, blend the rolled oats until they resemble a coarse flour, creating your homemade oat flour.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, honey, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth and creamy.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes fluffy.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil.
6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Serve the oatmeal pancakes warm, topped with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, sliced bananas, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a spoonful of yogurt.
