Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups Oats (gluten free if needed)
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Whole Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Oil (canola, vegetable, or avocado oil work great!)

Instructions

  • Measure out 2 cups oat flour into high powered blender. Start at low speed and increase slowly, blending for one minute.
  • Pour apple cider vinegar into the cup of milk and let sit for 5 minutes to let sour.
  • Combine flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. You can do this right in the blender with your oat flour, or in a separate bowl.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, and milk until well combined.
  • Pour oat flour into the bowl of liquid ingredients and mix well.
  • Heat a griddle or large pan over medium heat and coat with butter.
  • Once the pan is hot, begin to scoop 3 tablespoons of batter onto pan for each pancake.
  • When small bubbles start to form around the edges of the pancake, it's time to flip!
  • Let pancake rise and cook through before removing from pan.

Notes

Tips and Tricks:
  • The consistency of the batter may change based on elevation and humidity. The batter should be thick enough not to spread and flatten when scooped onto a hot pan, but thin enough not to mound. Add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time if needed to thin batter, or add oat flour in small amounts until desired consistency is reached.
  • For even better flavor, we recommend buttering your griddle or pan instead of using non-stick spray.
Variations:
  • Chocolate Chips - Mini chocolate chips work best because you can more evenly distribute chocolate throughout the pancake without distorting the shape.
  • Fruit - Add blueberries or small pieces of strawberry or raspberry.
  • Waffles - This recipe works great in the waffle maker too! If the bellies are full before the batter is gone, I like to make a few mini waffles and toss them in the freezer for a busy day.
