Ingredients
Oat Flour Pancakes
- 1½ cups Oats* (or, 1¼ cup pre-ground Oat Flour)
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoon maple syrup
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk (can add additional almond milk if batter is too thick or continues to thicken as you are cooking)
- 2 flax eggs
- 2 tablespoon Oil or vegan butter in pancake batter (optional). If you omit this ingredient you can add slightly more almond milk.
- 2 tablespoon Oil or vegan butter to cook pancakes in pan.
Optional Toppings

- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup whipped cream or vegan whipped cream
Instructions
Oat Flour Pancakes
- In separate bowls, mix wet ingredients and mix dry ingredients. Combine wet and dry ingredients and thoroughly mix.
- Let batter sit for about 5 minutes to allow oats to absorb moisture. Don't skip this step or batter will be too runny.
- Heat your pan, griddle or skillet to medium high heat.
- Pour pancakes mixture into pan (approx. ¼ cup per pancake).
- Cook until golden brown, flipping each pancake halfway.
Optional Toppings
- Top with additional sprinkle of fresh berries, cinnamon and/or vegan dairy free whipped cream.
Notes
*To Make Oat Flour: Take regular oats or quick oats (the ones you use for oatmeal) and add them to your food processor. Blend them until they reach the consistency of a fine powder.
Boxed Pancake Mix Option: You can use your favorite boxed oatmeal pancake mix instead of making your pancakes from scratch. For vegan and dairy free modifications, substitute almond milk, flax egg and oil/vegan butter.
Gluten Free: While oats and oat flour are generally gluten free, there can often be cross contamination at the packaging facility with products that contain gluten. It is best to buy a brand specifically designated as gluten free.
Other Non-Dairy Milk Options: Soy milk, coconut milk, pea milk or oat milk.
Flax Egg: To make a flax egg, mix one tablespoon of flaxseed meal with three tablespoons of water. Allow to sit refrigerated for about 10 minutes to thicken.
Vegan and Dairy Free Pancakes: Instructions as stated.
Vegan Protein Pancakes: Substitute 2 scoops of vegan protein powder for equal parts flour.
