Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oat bran
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat bran, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of the spoon to gently spread the batter into a circular shape if necessary.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat if needed to avoid burning.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the oat bran pancakes warm, topped with additional honey, syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
