Oat Milk Pancakes

Indulge in the irresistible fluffiness of Oat Milk Pancakes, a perfect and delightful breakfast staple.

Oat Milk Pancakes are a delightful variation of the classic breakfast favorite, catering to those who either prefer plant-based alternatives or have dietary restrictions that exclude dairy. Made with oat milk instead of cow’s milk, these pancakes are often lighter and can have a slight nuttiness, complements of the oats. Ideal for vegans and those with lactose intolerance, oat milk pancakes can be just as fluffy and tender as traditional pancakes when prepared with the right recipe.

Their batter is a blend of all-purpose flour or oat flour, for a gluten-free option, and oat milk which can be sweetened or flavored with vanilla extract. Some recipes may also include a leavening agent such as baking powder to achieve that classic pancake rise. These pancakes are versatile and can be dressed up with a variety of toppings, from fresh berries and maple syrup to almond butter and banana slices. Whether you’re looking to switch up your breakfast routine or need a plant-based option, oat milk pancakes are a delicious and satisfying choice.

INGREDIENTS YOU NEED

1 1/2 cups oat milk
3 tbsp unsalted butter melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour OR 1:1 gluten free flour with xanthan gum
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp baking powder

Instructions To Make Oat Milk Pancakes

Add your oat milk, vanilla extract, melted butter, and egg to a large measuring cup and whisk until combined, then set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together your flour, sugar, and baking powder. Pour in your wet ingredients and whisk until just combined. Don’t over-mix the batter!
Heat a large skillet or nonstick griddle to medium low heat. If using a pan, add a little bit of butter to grease the pan.
Once the pan or griddle is hot scoop ¼ cup of pancake batter and pour it onto the griddle.
When bubbles start to form on top of the pancakes, use a spatula to flip them over and cook on the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until the pancakes are golden brown. Remove from heat and add toppings of choice and enjoy!
