Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups (200 g) ground rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup (240 g) milk of your choice
  • 2 tbsp (40 g) peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

For Cooking and Serving

  • Butter (for cooking)
  • Maple syrup (for serving)
  • Berries (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the ground oats, baking powder, and a pinch of salt to ensure even distribution of leavening and flavor base.
  2. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, vigorously whisk together the egg, milk, peanut butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients bowl and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes tender.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add a small amount of butter to coat the surface. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
  5. Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with fresh berries to add natural sweetness and a fresh contrast.

Notes

  • Use any milk of your choice – dairy or plant-based milk works well.
  • For a gluten-free version, ensure your oats are certified gluten-free.
  • Peanut butter can be substituted with almond or cashew butter if preferred.
  • Adjust sugar quantity to taste or substitute with natural sweeteners like honey or agave syrup.
  • Cooking on medium-low heat helps prevent burning and ensures even cooking.
  • The batter may thicken as it stands; add a tablespoon of milk if too thick before cooking.
