Ingredients
- Oats, I just Use Basic Porridge Rolled Oats. I used half the recommended portion size per serving.
- Milk, Your Preference, I Used Semi Skimmed. About 100ml
- Honey, A Runny One Works Better Than A Set Honey. The amount is based on your sweetness preference
- An Egg, Whole
- Plain/All-Purpose Flour. 30g but have spare to hand in case you need to thicken it more.
Method
- Soak some oats in milk for 5-10 minutes.
- Add the honey, this will depend on your sweetness preference but you can also add actual sugar if you want a more obvious sweet punch
- Add in an egg and mix it all together well
- Add in some plain/all-purpose flour and give it another good mix
- If you don’t have the right thickness add more milk to loosen or flour to thicken before placing it in the fridge for 5-10 minutes
- Turn the heat up for a pan before adding the mixture making sure it coats the pan evenly and is a good thickness for your preference
- Turning once or twice to ensure it’s cooked to your preference before serving. I usually get two to three pancakes out of this mixture for one hearty person’s portion
Eating And Storage Tips
As these are actually pretty sturdy for a pancake you can leave these to cool and cover them for the fridge to reheat them in a pan later but if you do this add a little butter to the pan to stop them burning at a high heat.
If you aren’t planning to have all the mixture at once, or want to get yourself prepared, you can easily make the mixture up a day in advance and leave it in the fridge to cook the next day just be sure to give it a good mix through to do this and see if you need to add any more milk in (I find it thickens a bit the longer it’s left).
If you want to add more things into this you can add something like blueberries or even grated and squeezed out apples but I would personally rather top them with something like a bit of Greek yoghurt and fresh fruit. Even when I did this without added fruit and such I found it kept me going through until lunch time so if you add more prepare to be loaded up for a full day of being on the go!
