Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes

Barbara August 09, 2015

Due to the addition of oats in this recipe, these pancakes are a little denser and heartier than the Simple Pancakes. Make a big steaming stack and serve them with a mug of warm tea for a cozy winter breakfast.

Ingredients
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup unsweetened soy or almond milk
• 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax seed + 6 tablespoons water)
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons oat bran
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (optional)

Instructions
• Make the flax egg by mixing the ground flax with 6 tablespoons of water and letting it sit for 10 minutes. The consistency should resemble that of an egg.
• In a bowl, mix together the oats, milk, flax eggs, and oil. In a small separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Then combine both mixtures and stir, adding more milk if necessary for your desired consistency.
• Lightly grease a hot skillet or pan with additional oil. Pour ½-cup pancake rounds on the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the surface.
• Carefully drop 6–8 optional blueberries onto one side of each pancake, then flip and cook on the other side until golden brown.
