Oaty Eggy Blueberry Pancakey Goodness

Hello everyone! I realize it has been close to a million years since my last post, but I was making breakfast this morning and wanted to share this awesome recipie with the world...or at least the 12 people who will read this :) So, here ya go!

The ingredient roundup:



Quick oats, 3 eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, brown sugar, flax seed, milk, and blueberries. However, this is only one possible combination. Apple slices with pumpkin pie spice instead of cinnamon would also be delish.



About a cup of oats.



I put mine in the food processor for about 30 seconds just to make the texture a little smoother. Also, anytime I can aggressively grind anything on a Sunday morning, I tend to have a lot less stress and frustration in the rest of my day. Suck it, anger management.


Nice mealy texture.

Get cracking


Flax seed! If you have never used them before, start slow. You'll understand why if you don't. Tip: don't make chili for dinner with this, ok? I share because I care.


Add milk (about a cup, maybe more for thinner cakes) and blue berries. Whisk. Revel in being a domestic goddess while ignoring your screaming children.

This recipe makes about 5 pancakes using a soup ladle. If you have a way of pouring them onto the griddle or using a smaller spoon you could probably still get 6 good sized pancakes.


Because they are so dense, they don't bubble like normal pancakes when ready to flip. When your spatula can slide all the way under without sticking, gets to flippin'.



Obligatory final shot before they get destroyed with hungry abandon.



To borrow Kix's line, "Kid tested, mother approved"! Enjoy!!
