You Need To Make These Pancake Recipes This Pancake Tuesday

Pancake Tuesday is one of our favourite days of the whole year, and this year we’ve decided to experiment a bit with our pancake recipes. While you can’t beat a good squirt of maple syrup, some butter, lemon and sugar or chocolate spread, we thought it would be great to try something new this year…

These are just some of our favourites.

Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes

These pancakes are relatively healthy compared to the classic pancake, so you can definitely indulge in these.

Ingredients: 

1 cup flour
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
2 tsp baking powder
3 tbs brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup raisins
1 1/4 cup milk (whole cows milk or full fat coconut milk will both work)

Method:

Mix the flour, oats, salt, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg together in a bowl. Mix everything together.

Make a well in the middle, add the milk, egg and vanilla and stir until combined. Add in the raisins and stir everything together.

Add about 1/4 cup of batter to a hot pan, and cook on both sides.

This mix should make around 6 to 8 pancakes, depending on their size.
