Description

These quick apple oatmeal pancakes are made with just four ingredients: oats, apple, egg, and water. Blend everything until smooth, let the batter thicken for a few minutes, and cook in a pan until golden. A simple breakfast with no added sugar or regular flour.

Ingredients

50 g rolled oats (about ½ cup)
1 small apple
1 egg
50-100 ml water (about 3–7 tablespoons)

Instructions

1
Add the oats, apple, egg, and 50 ml of water to a blender. 🍎
2
Blend until the mixture is smooth. Add a little more water if the batter is too thick.
3
Let the batter rest for a few minutes so the oats can absorb some of the liquid and the mixture can thicken.
4
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it if needed.
5
Pour small portions of batter into the pan to form pancakes.
6
Cook until the edges begin to set and the bottoms turn golden, then carefully flip and cook the other side.
7
Repeat with the remaining batter and serve warm. 🥞

Note

Why You'll Love This Recipe

Only four ingredients: Simple ingredients you may already have at home.
Blender preparation: Everything is blended together, keeping cleanup to a minimum.
Naturally sweet: The apple adds sweetness without needing extra sugar.
No regular flour: Oats form the base of the batter.
Quick breakfast: Perfect when you want something homemade without spending much time in the kitchen.

Extra Notes

Start with less water: Add 50 ml first, then gradually add more until the batter blends easily and is thick enough to hold its shape in the pan.
Let the batter rest: A few minutes gives the oats time to absorb the liquid and helps the mixture thicken.
Make smaller pancakes: They are easier to flip and less likely to break.
Cook over medium heat: If the pan is too hot, the outside may brown before the center is cooked.
Choose your apple: A sweeter apple gives the pancakes a naturally sweeter flavor, while a tart apple adds a little freshness.
Gluten-free option: Oats are naturally gluten-free, but cross-contamination can occur. Use certified gluten-free oats if needed.
Serving ideas: Try cinnamon, Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, nut butter, or a drizzle of honey. 🍯
