Add the rolled oats, egg whites, almond milk, baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and honey or maple syrup (if using) to a blender.
Blend the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary. Allow the batter to rest for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circular shape if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, re-coating the skillet with nonstick cooking spray as necessary.
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
