Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oat bran
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter or oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat bran, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar. Whisk to blend the dry ingredients evenly.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes dense.
Fold in the chopped pecans to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
