Oat Flour Pancakes are the perfect healthy way to start your day! They are hearty, naturally gluten free, and can be made in 15 minutes!

Pancakes are a weekend staple in our house. I love lazy Sunday mornings with a plate piled high with pancakes and a big ol’ glass of milk.

I thing I love most about these pancakes is they are so flippable. They are slightly sweet and have a toasty oat flavor.

Ingredients to make oat flour pancakes:

  • Milk: I use whole milk but you can use any kind of milk. Almond milk, oat milk, etc.
  • Egg: I used a traditional egg, but you can try a flax egg. I haven’t tested it, but it should work!
  • Vanilla: Just a splash.
  • Oat flour: The star of the show! I buy oat flour in the store, but you can make your own. Directions below 🙂
  • Coconut sugar: Adds some sweetness to the pancakes. If you don’t have coconut sugar or don’t want to use it, you can use another granular sweetener instead.
  • Baking powder: Gives the pancakes some fluff.
  • Salt: A few pinches.

How to Make Oat Flour Pancakes:

Mix together. In a large bowl whisk together the ingredients until smooth. 

Sit. Allow the batter to sit for five minutes to thicken up.

Cook. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes until the edges appear set and the center begins to bubble. 

Flip. Cook the other side for another 2 minutes. 

Serve! Transfer to a plate and serve with your favorite toppings!

Can I Make my Own Oat Flour?

Yes! All you have to do is place old fashioned rolled oats into a blender and blend on high until it turns into a flour.

How to Store Leftovers:

These are best eaten immediately. You can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5 days. I find it best to put a piece of parchment paper between each pancake. You can also freeze for 2 months.

Defrost in the fridge overnight and reheat in the toaster, oven, or in a skillet until it reaches your desired temperature!
