Nutritious Oat Pancakes Recipe (video)

This is our adaptation of a Bon Appetit recipe from Carla. We've made a couple of changes (mostly to bump up the flavour of these), and we absolutely love the results. Now, these are not the light and fluffy pancakes you get at iHop or Denny's. They are very hearty and filling, but are still fluffy and very creamy inside. Part of this is because the chia seeds release a lot of mucilage, which is why you need to let them bloom in the buttermilk a little before you get started mixing everything together. This mucilage helps with the creamy texture in the middle of these delicious pancakes.

We add a whisper of cinnamon and some vanilla paste to this recipe which really bumps up the flavour and makes it more like a classic brunch food. With all of the fibre in these, they are incredibly satisfying and will keep you sated for a long time. We usually limit ourselves to two for a meal. They also keep very well in an airtight container. To bring them back, we just pop them in the toaster oven for a little while, and they get delightfully crispy.
