Instructions
  1. Add Oats to food processor, blend on medium until oats turn into oat flour. Do not turn it into a powder, you want it a slightly coarse.
  2. Add all ingredients into food processor and blend until mixed thoroughly and is a batter.

  3. Let batter stand at least 10 minutes in order for oats to absorb liquids.
  4. Using a good non-stick pan - turn on medium heat. If you have a good pan, no oil is necessary. I usually wipe the pan with a tiny bit of coconut oil but that is just a preference. Use a 1/4 cup scoop per pancake.
  5. NOTE: Do not cook pancakes on more than medium heat! These pancakes are dense and it take a little while for the oats to cook. If your stove top cooks hot, you are better off turning it down a little and being patient. These are NOT 5 minute flap jacks and take a while to cook. About 7-8 minutes per side.
  6. SERVE! I love to add walnuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and pure Michigan maple syrup.

  7. NOTE: Do not expect these to be like a fluffy flapjack. If your batter is too thick, they will be gummy in the middle. This recipe can only be made without oil if you have a high quality hard anodized non-stick pan (like ScanPan brand). If you are not sure about the temperature setting, start lower than you think.

  1. These were a really gummy, wet texture in the middle for me. I followed the directions as stated, added twice the milk and leavening and cooked it in a cast iron skillet in the oven and still it was wet and gummy. The flavor was really good but I think there was too many oats.

  2. I had to add a bit more soy milk as the batter was pretty thick. I cooked on med heat, had to remove from pan as outside was done(dark). These were still gummy in the middle

    1. Per the recipe, it really depends on the liquid content of the pumpkin. For example, blanched and then frozen may have more liquid then a high quality can of pureed pumpkin. You absolutely have to cook these slow. Per the instructions: “Do not cook pancakes on more than medium heat! These pancakes are dense and it take a little while for the oats to cook. If your stove top cooks hot, you are better off turning it down a little and being patient. These are NOT 5 minute flap jacks and take a while to cook. About 7-8 minutes per side.”
