Oat and Pear Pancakes

I LOVE pancakes for breakfast! It is really easy, can be easily refrigerated/frozen and reheated, and it results in minimal mess and clean up from 2 toddlers!

OAT AND PEAR PANCAKES

This recipe uses NO flour.

Gluten Free – substitute the oats for quinoa flakes or gluten free oats.

Egg Free – substitute the egg for 1 x banana

Dairy – You can also use whatever milk you like.

These are heavier and thicker than the average ‘flour’ pancakes which makes them really satisfying as they are nice and filling, and you would have no idea there’s pear in there!

Add all ingredients into the bowl.

Mix 40 seconds/Speed 7.

Spoon batter onto a frying pan (medium heat) with some butter/coconut oil.

Fry approximately 2 minutes on each side until browned.
