Oat Bran Pancakes
Oat bran pancakes are nutritious pancakes packed with fibre and protein with a delicious nutty flavour. Pancakes made with oat bran are simple and easy, with just 4 healthy ingredients, and can be gluten free and dairy free.
Equipment
- Blender or mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 100 g oat bran gluten free if needed
- 1 egg
- 100 ml milk dairy or non dairy
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- oil for frying
Instructions
- Add the oat bran, milk, egg and baking powder to a blender and blitz until thick and creamy.
- Heat a non stick frying pan or pancake pan over a medium heat. Add a splash of oil and tip the pan to spread the oil.
- Add tablespoons of oat bran batter to the pan. Ensure the pancakes are spread out enough that they don't join together. You'll need to cook the pancakes in 2 batches.
- After a couple of minutes, the tops of the pancakes will start to dry out. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden on the other side.
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
Notes
- You'll get 6 to 8 pancakes from this quantity of batter. They'll serve 2-3 people depending on how hungry you are.
- If you prefer you can make the pancakes in a bowl. Add the oat bran and make a well in the middle. Break the egg into the well and gradually whisk into the oat bran. Gradually add the milk, whisking until smooth.
- If you'd prefer to make large thin oat bran pancakes, add an additional 75ml of milk. The batter should be the consistency of single cream.
