Ingredients
Main Batter
- 1 1/2 cups gluten free rolled oats
- 1/2 cup whole milk yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Optional Mix-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips, fruit, or nuts (optional)
For Cooking
- Avocado oil or ghee for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: Add all the main batter ingredients including oats, yogurt, eggs, almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to a high-powered blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and uniform. If desired, stir in optional mix-ins like chocolate chips or fruit after blending.
- Preheat the Pan: Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once the surface is hot, add a small amount of avocado oil or ghee to coat the pan, preventing the pancakes from sticking.
- Cook First Side: Pour about 1/3 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook the first side until the edges look set and bubbles begin to form and pop on the surface, roughly 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip and Cook Second Side: Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2 to 4 minutes on the other side until golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Repeat Cooking: Continue the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil as necessary to keep the pancakes from sticking.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm topped with maple syrup and fresh fruit of your choice for a nourishing and tasty breakfast.
Notes
- You can substitute whole milk yogurt with a plant-based yogurt if you prefer a dairy-free version.
- For added texture and nutrition, feel free to add nuts, seeds, or fresh berries as mix-ins.
- Adjust the almond milk quantity slightly if the batter is too thick or too thin to get the perfect pancake consistency.
- Use a nonstick skillet or griddle to prevent sticking and reduce oil usage.
- Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and reheat in a toaster or skillet.
