Almond Oatcakes

by

Hello Friends!

Happy National Pancake Day!  Well, two days early.

I’ve been teasing you with the yummy Oatcake pictures on my MIMM post and SHN Favorites post…so I thought I’d finally share the recipe!  Plus I’m sure you were wondering what you’d make for National Pancake Day! 😉


I took my Oatcakes recipe from last year and update it a bit.  (And made some homemade syrup too!) 

This batch was tested by my roomie AND Dave (the BF) and both approved.  Therefore they must be awesome..right?

Almond Oatcakes

by Amanda @ Diary of a Semi-Health Nut
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10-15 minutes
Keywords: stove top breakfast oatmeal
Ingredients (10 pancakes)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 TBS melted butter or margarine
  • 1 + 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 TBS brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup oats
  • 2/3 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp maple flavoring
  • 1/2 tsp almond flavoring
  • I food processed half of this to the consistency of flour for a smoother pancake. If you use old fashioned oats without processing them, I’d suggest letting the batter sit about 20 minutes before cooking.
Instructions
Mix together butter/margarine and brown sugar. Beat in egg. Add milk, maple flavoring and almond flavoring.
In a separate bowl, mix together all dry ingredients. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients.
Heat small skillet to medium heat and spray with cooking spray (preferably butter flavored).
Pour 1/4 cup batter onto skillet. Flip when bubbles form on top and the edges start to form (1-2 minutes depending on your burner).
As with any pancake, it might take a pancake or two to get the heat, flip and cooking time right. And you can always eat the “mess-ups” while ou cook the rest. 🙂 (I personally forgot the egg for the first pancake. The recipe needs that egg to bind the ingredients together…very crumbly, but delicious nonetheless!)

Yay for snow days, right?

Well I’d love to stay and chat, but I must get back to studying for my you-know-what test tonight.  That one subject that I complain about all the time….I’m trying not to talk about it so much.

 This doesn’t count, right?

 

See you tomorrow with some more tasty eats!

  3. Thank you for including the nutrition info! I don’t eat pancakes much anymore because of the carbs (not that I ate them THAT often before but once in awhile have a craving) but these are definitely do-able for me!

  6. Yes and the carbs are whole grain oats and whole wheat flour (and sugar..but you don’t have to add that)! 🙂

  7. I almost just leaned over and tried to bite that pieces off of the fork. 🙂

    These look amazing, m’dear. I love the use of maple in the batter!
