Instead of making traditional pancakes on Sunday mornings, try the oat flour version! These Spiced Oat Flour Pancakes have a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg to add a warm feeling to your mornings.
Oat Flour Pancakes Ingredient Breakdown
- Oat flour: Oat flour can be tricky to work with. It is very light in weight but more absorbent than all-purpose flour As the batter sits it will thicken, you can add more oat milk (or any other plant-based milk) to thin out the batter
- Baking powder: To add a lift to the pancake
- Cinnamon and Nutmeg: These 2 spices work together so well, and in this oat flour pancake it feels cozy!
- Brown sugar: This is an optional ingredient, adds a bit of sweetness. I usually leave it out because I eat pancakes with lots of maple syrup
- Salt: Just a sprinkle is needed here
- Egg: Binds the ingredients together. I have not tried using egg-alternatives in this recipe
- Vanilla extract: Only for taste
- Oat milk: Currently my favourite of all milks and it works so well here. I used Earth’s Own Unsweetened Vanilla and Original, and both versions work for this recipe
How To Make Pancakes
- Start with turning on the griddle or frying pan to medium-high heat
- Combine the dry ingredients and wet ingredients together, you do not have to get rid of any lumps in the batter
- Coat the cooking surface with the cooking spray or butter, and do this in between each pancake
- Using a 1/4 measuring cup will make sure each pancake is the same size, pour the batter on the cooking surface
- Once the batter starts to bubble, flip to the other size. Remove from the griddle and set aside. Continue with the rest of the batter
- As the batter sits it may become thick (oat flour is very absorbent), add in more oat milk to help with consistency
- Serve warm with fresh fruit, coconut whipped cream or maple syrup
