Perfectly fluffy and golden, theyβre easy to whip up in under 30 minutes and pair beautifully with fresh fruit, extra walnuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Whether youβre vegan or just looking for a healthier pancake recipe, this oneβs a must-try for a cozy weekend brunch or quick weekday breakfast!
In a food processor, blend the rolled oats until they form a fine oat flour. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Roughly chop the walnuts and add them to the oat flour along with the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until fully blended.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a sprinkle of extra chopped walnuts.
