Instructions
Step 1: Make the Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar (if using).
In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 2: Preheat the Skillet
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet.
Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fruit, or nut butter.
Notes
Let the Batter Rest – Thickens the batter for fluffier pancakes.
Don’t Overmix – Stir until just combined to keep pancakes tender.
Cook on Medium Heat – Ensures even cooking without burning.
Use a Measuring Cup – For evenly sized pancakes.
Customize – Add your favorite flavors like cinnamon, fruit, or nuts.
