Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and plain yogurt. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to soften and absorb some of the yogurt.
- Crack the eggs into the oat and yogurt mixture. Add honey, baking powder, and salt. Whisk thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the batter is smooth.
- Gently fold in half of the blueberries into the pancake batter, reserving the remaining berries for topping.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking spray.
- Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour the batter onto the hot skillet, leaving space between each pancake.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look dry.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate. Repeat the cooking process with remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with the remaining fresh blueberries and an extra drizzle of honey if desired.
Tips
- Soak the Oats: Allowing the oats to sit in the yogurt for 5-10 minutes not only softens them but also enhances the overall texture of the pancakes, making them extra fluffy.
- Choose the Right Pan: A non-stick skillet or griddle is ideal for cooking pancakes. Make sure to preheat it properly to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
- Watch for Bubbles: Keep an eye on your pancakes as they cook. When small bubbles form on the surface, it's time to flip them for that perfect golden-brown finish.
- Customize Your Toppings: While fresh blueberries and honey are delicious, feel free to get creative! Add sliced bananas, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra flavor.
- Batch Cooking: If you're making a larger batch, keep the cooked pancakes warm in the oven at a low temperature (around 200°F) while you finish cooking the rest.
- Make It Ahead: These pancakes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a quick breakfast option throughout the week. Just reheat them in the toaster or microwave!
