Equipment

  • non stick frying pan or pancake pan or use a cast iron pan
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g plain flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder not required for thin pancakes
  • 1 egg
  • 100 ml oat milk use 175ml oat milk for thin pancakes
  • pinch salt optional
  • 1 teaspoon oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Mix the flour, salt and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Push the flour towards the sides of the bowl so that there's a dip in the middle.

  • Heat a nonstick frying pan over a medium heat. Add a few drops of oil and tip it around the pan.

For thick fluffy oat milk pancakes

  • Add individual tablespoons of batter to the hot pan. You should be able to fit 3 or 4 pancakes in the pan, but leave some space between them so that they don't join up!
  • Cook for 2 minutes until the top surface is starting to dry out and bubble. Turn the pancakes over and cook the other side for another couple of minutes.
  • Repeat with the remaining mixture.

For thin crispy pancakes

  • Add a couple of tablespoons of batter to the hot pan and tip it so that it covers the base of the pan evenly. Leave to cook for about 2 minutes until the mixture is set. Flip the pancake and cook the remaining side for a minute.
  • Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Notes

  • Gluten-free flour or oat flour can be used if preferred
  • Oat milk pancakes can be made in advance. Store them in an airtight box in a cool place, or they can also be frozen. Briefly reheat the pancakes in a dry pan.
