Oatmeal Pancakes with Maple Fruit
Have a full house and need a breakfast idea? Here's a quick pancake recipe that serves eight! Everyone at your table will enjoy these filling oatmeal-buttermilk pancakes, topped with fresh fruit and a decadent cinnamon-maple sauce.
Ingredients
- 3 medium bananas, peeled and sliced
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- ¼ cup sugar-free maple-flavor syrup
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup flour
- ½ cup quick-cooking rolled oats
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup low-fat buttermilk or sour milk (see tip)
- ¼ cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed or 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
- 1 tablespoon sugar-free maple-flavor syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
- For maple fruit, stir together bananas, blueberries, the 1/4 cup syrup, the lemon juice, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Stir together flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Use a fork to combine buttermilk, egg, oil, 1 tablespoon syrup, and the vanilla in a medium bowl. Add buttermilk mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened. Let stand for 10 minutes to soften oats.
- For each pancake, spoon 2 slightly rounded tablespoons batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet; spread to a 3- to 4-inch circle. Cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until pancakes are golden brown. Turn over when edges are slightly dry and bottoms are browned. Serve warm topped with maple fruit.
