These are so good it’s insane!! I’ve been meaning to try this for a while, and finally decided to go for it this morning for breakfast. SO GOOD! WOW! And they’re such a good deal calorie-wise that I can regularly include them and they don’t have to be a special treat like regular pancakes- and their much healthier than regular pancakes too! Oh and their delicious as well!!!
There are so many recipes out there for oatmeal pancakes, but here’s what I used… (oh, and you can use any amount of oats that you want- like 1/4 cup if you want a smaller pancake or 1/2 cup if you want a bigger pancake- just make sure to use equal parts oats and egg whites)
Oatmeal Pancakes
(makes one big pancake)
Ingredients:
1/3 cup quick oats (quick oats are best because they absorb liquid faster than rolled oats)
1/3 cup egg whites
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
ground cinnamon to taste (I just kind of sprinkle it in- however much I feel like at the time)
vanilla also to taste- around 1/2 – 1 teaspoon
1/2 of a banana, mashed (this is totally optional, but it adds a nice flavor)
Directions:
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl. Let it sit for a few minutes so that the oats can absorb some of the liquid. While it’s sitting, let your skillet heat up and spray with a little cooking spray. When your pan is nice and hot pour all of the mixture into the pan. It’s okay if there is still a tiny bit of liquid left. When you can shake the pan and the pancake moves, flip it over and let it cook on the other side. It will just take a couple of minutes on each side. When both sides are nice and brown you’re done!
Put it on a plate and top with whatever you like- a little syrup or agave nectar, or some mashed banana, fresh fruit, preserves, apple butter, pumpkin butter, or even peanut butter! I put a spoonful of apple butter on mine this morning- DELISH!!!
