Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar (or sugar of your choice)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter, plus more for pan
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla flavoring
  • 2 eggs

Fruit

  • 1 pear, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch chunks

To Serve

  • Maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oat Flour: In a blender, blend the rolled oats until they turn into a fine powder, creating homemade oat flour that forms the base of your pancakes.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, coconut sugar, salt, and cinnamon to evenly distribute the leavening and spices.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, melted butter, vanilla flavoring, and eggs until smooth to create the wet mixture.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just incorporated to avoid overmixing and maintain pancake tenderness.
  5. Rest the Batter: Let the batter sit for 10 minutes, allowing the oats to absorb moisture and the mixture to thicken slightly.
  6. Add Pear Chunks: Fold in most of the peeled and diced pear chunks, reserving some to sprinkle on top of the pancakes for fresh bursts of flavor and texture.
  7. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or non-stick pan, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat, preparing the surface for cooking pancakes.
  8. Cook Pancakes: Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour the pancake batter into the heated pan. Cook until the pancakes are golden brown and set, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  9. Flip and Finish Cooking: Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, ensuring they are cooked through and golden on both sides.
  10. Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, topped with the reserved pear chunks and drizzled generously with maple syrup for a sweet and fruity finish.

Notes

  • Allowing the batter to rest helps the oats soften and results in fluffier pancakes.
  • You can substitute yogurt with a dairy-free alternative to make the recipe vegan-friendly.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount or type of sugar used.
  • Cooking pancakes on medium heat prevents burning while ensuring they cook through completely.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the dry ingredients.
