Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup instant oatmeal
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Place the instant oatmeal in a blender or food processor and blend until it forms a coarse powder similar to flour.
In a medium bowl, combine the blended oatmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter.
Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it gently into a round shape.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or additional honey/maple syrup.
