Notes
This recipe is for 1 serving. Depending on the size of the pancakes, it will yield 1-2 large pancakes or 3-4 smaller pancakes.
Feel free to add any healthy toppings you like! A few of our favorites include sugar-free syrup, sugar-free jam and sliced berries, or a few spoonfuls of peanut butter.
For thicker pancakes with a little more texture, try chopping the oats by hand and whisking the ingredients instead of blending them.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can reheat gently in a pan or enjoy them cold.
