Healthy Oat Pancake Recipe

Healthy Oat Pancake Recipe!!

There is nothing better than that amazing smell and taste of pancakes in the morning right? So when I would hear about "healthy foods" pancakes never came to my mind. I would deprive myself to greens and fruits. That did not last long and was not a success either. I have a passion for health and fitness and I LOVE FOOD. Eating clean should not mean depriving yourself or be boring. Food should taste good! So I decided to learn how to cook but not just cook, I wanted to cook clean, healthy, and yummy. That is  when I realized there are SO  many great recipes! Today I will show you my favorite oat (and protein optional) pancakes that are perfect for breakfast!

INGREDIENTS

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup organic rice milk(or water)
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon (I used more)

Directions:

COOKING!!

1. Heat rice milk until hot. Add oats and set aside (add protein optional)

2. Mix remaining dry ingredients & add oatmeal mixture.

3. Add egg whites and mix until well blended. I used blender for a smoother batter but that is optional! The batter may be thick and if you would like to thin it out add more rice milk or water.

4.Cook on a hot griddle and spray Pam before.

5. There are so many options for the toppings! Nuts, Fruits, Agave syrup, etc. I used sliced bananas, sun-flower seed butter,honey, and cinnamon.

TOPPINGS

This took me about 20 minutes, I did 2 extra pancakes to save for the next morning. They came out amazing and tasted delicious.  They were super easy and simple to make before school or work. Hope you enjoy!!!
