What's in This Fluffy Oat Milk Pancakes Recipe?

Plain Flour. For everyone's information, plain flour contains gluten, and this gluten enables the formation of pancake's structure. Without plain flour in this recipe, your pancake will just result in a big gooey mass of pancake failure.

Baking Powder. With baking powder in the recipe, bubbles are created in the pancake batter. These bubbles allow your pancakes to rise and have the texture of being light and fluffy.

Granulated Sugar. It does not merely add sweetness to your pancakes. It will also help in browning and give you those crispy edges that will make your pancakes more enjoyable. The addition of sugar to your pancake batter also ensures a softer texture.

Butter. It will prevent too much rising of the batter done by baking powder. Sith butter present in the recipe, your pancakes will be moist and rich in flavor. For dairy free pancakes you can use coconut oil instead.

Oat Milk. The oat milk will assist in combining or mixing the dry ingredients in this recipe. Oat milk will dissolve the flour and baking powder along with the rest of the ingredients present in making your Oat Milk Pancakes.

Egg. Like flour, the egg will also aid in forming the structure of your pancakes. The egg will hold the structure of your pancakes, allowing them to rise. Additionally, the yolk will also give your pancakes richness in flavor.

How To Make Fluffy Oat Milk Pancakes?

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, oat milk, sugar and melted butter.
2. Stir in flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt.
3. Spray a large skillet with oil or grease with butter.
4. Heat the skillet over medium heat, scoop a ¼ cup of the batter per pancake into the skillet.
5. Cook for 1-2 minutes; once bubbles appear on the top, flip on the other side and cook for one minute.
6. Put the pancakes on a serving plate top with your favourite toppings, then serve warm.

Top Tips!

• Too much egg will make your pancakes too dense and have a texture similar to that of custard; less egg, on the other hand, will make the pancakes dry. The trick here is to check if the amount of eggs you have added is correct to prevent ruining the texture of your pancakes.
• Make sure that your baking powder is fresh and new! Old and expired baking powder makes a thin and flat batch of pancakes.
• Allow your batter to rest. After mixing all the ingredients, leave it a few minutes for all the dry ingredients to be surely combined.
• Pay attention! Burnt pancakes or uncooked pancakes are not very much enjoyable, are they?

Recipe Variations

• You may add vanilla extract into your pancake batter to add a more distinct flavor other than the sweetness of your granulated sugar.
• You might have used your regular butter, but if you are aiming for completely dairy-free pancakes, make sure you use a butter plant-based.

Serving Suggestions
