Pancake Day is supposed to be a day to use up the rest of "the good stuff" before lent. In general, I just like pancakes, as they're easy and rather quick to make. To honour Pancake Day, I opted for a slight healthier option than my previous ones, so that they could qualify as dinner instead of desert, and so that I could try something new. I came across this recipe in a magazine on the train back to where I study yesterday, along with several other exciting pancake recipes, but this one stood out as the "healthiest" one, with no white flour at all!
Ingredients:
150 g rolled oats
470 ml milk
150 g wholewheat flour
2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
100 g melted butter
Oil or butter for cooking
1. Mix oats and milk in one bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
3. Add the wets to the oats and milk.
4. Add whisked eggs and butter and mix till you have a smooth batter (as smooth as you can get it with a lot of oats in it).
5. Cook the pancakes in a heated pan.
6. Serve with topping of your choice (or just plain).
