Oatmeal Pancakes Vegan

Having an easy vegan oatmeal pancake recipe is essential for Saturday mornings or busy nights. This recipe is my go-to! Using oats as the base gives me confidence that my kids are eating healthy. This recipe also works very well in a waffle maker.
Serving Size 6 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 5 cups oat flour grind oats in a blender
  • 3 Tbsp flaxseed meal
  • 1/2 Tbsp cinnamon
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cups applesauce
  • 3 cups milk any kind
  • 2 cups water

Instructions

  • To grind oats into flour, scoop out rounded cups of oats into the blender, and blend until you get a fine oat flour.
  • Combine all ingredients and whisk together. The mix may look liquidy, but don't worry! Oats absorb liquid like crazy, just wait a few minutes and stir again.
  • Make pancakes as usual. If the mixture thickens up too much, add 1/2 cup of water at a time to get it back to pancake-mix perfection.
