These oatmeal pancakes come out fluffy with a non-sticky texture inside. So it is hard for anyone to know these have been made with oats. I don’t make pancakes often but whenever I do I make these as they are healthier.

For the topping you can use maple syrup, honey, chocolate syrup or fruit syrup. We usually go with the chocolate sauce as I always stock the homemade one. I have also shared the recipe of the chocolate syrup at the end of this post.

To make the oat flour, just process or blend rolled oats or instant oats until you get a fine powder.

For variations, you can also swap in some cocoa for oat flour. You can also add some chocolate chips to make choco chip pancakes.

These are best served hot, straight from the pan.
