Equipment
- mixing bowl

- measuring spoons
- whisk
- spatula
- non-stick skillet or griddle
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups oat flour
- 1/2 cup vanilla or plain protein powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil cooled slightly
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt until no lumps remain.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until just combined; a few small lumps are okay. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold the melted butter or coconut oil into the batter until it is fully incorporated.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the edges look set and bubbles form on the surface and pop. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
A few small lumps in the batter are okay. Be careful not to overmix for the fluffiest texture.
