Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, blend the rolled oats until they resemble a coarse flour, creating your homemade oat flour.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, honey, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil.
- 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.
- 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.
Tips
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with almond flour or a gluten-free flour blend.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a warm spice flavor.
- For added texture and flavor, mix in some chopped nuts or chocolate chips into the batter.
