Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray or butter
• 0 Optional toppings (e.g., fresh fruit, nuts, syrup)

Directions

Step 1

In a blender, pulse the rolled oats for about 30 seconds or until they have the consistency of coarse flour.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the oat flour from the blender, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray or butter.

Step 6

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet, leaving space between pancakes.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve warm with optional toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, or syrup.
