You can also choose a more healthy option in place of sugar. You can use honey, stevia or a simple blend of fruit to sweeten the oatmeal pancake.

Ingredients

150g plain flour

100g uncooked oat (any type of rolled oat would be fine)

1tsp baking powder

3-4tbsp sugar

½ tsp salt

2 large egg

250ml buttermilk (I used half the milk, half coconut water mixed with 1tbsp vinegar)

2 tbsp butter, melted and cooled

1tsp Vanilla essence (optional)

Vegetable oil for frying

How to make buttermilk oatmeal pancake

Get 2 bowls, in a bowl add all the dry ingredients, mix together and form a well in the middle. In another bowl add the wet ingredients. Add the wet ingredients to the dry one and mix together to combine. Leave to stand for at least 5 minutes and prepare to pancake

Place a frying pan or a non-stick pan on medium heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil at a time and swirl around the pan. Using a scoop, pour the pancake batter into the oil and fry for about a minute on each side. The pancake is ready to be flipped if it starts bubbling and the edges are easy to lift. Repeat this process till you have exhausted the batter. Serve your pancake with maple syrup, honey or fruits of choice.

Alternatively, throw all the ingredients in a blend and blitz for a few seconds and follow the same rules to pancake. Yummy
