This morning’s breakfast – Oatmeal Pancakes

Posted on : 16-05-2009 | By : Cindy | In : My idiot-proof recipes

These pancakes are super-healthy and filling. Nutritionally similar to porridge but much more fun! We love them with maple or golden syrup and if there are any left-overs I pack them in the school lunch-box.

oatmeal-pancakes-2

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup reduced fat milk
2-3 tablespoons wheat germ
1 egg
1/3 cup sugar
1 banana, mashed
1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

Soak rolled oats, milk and wheat germ for a few minutes. Drop in egg and whisk with a fork. Mix in sugar and banana. Lastly mix in flour and baking powder. The mix should be thicker than pancake batter. Heat a non-stick fry-pan. Drop a generous tablespoon of mix for each pancake and cook each side until golden.
