Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, 2 fresh eggs, 6 Tbsp of milk, a pinch of salt, and 1/2 tsp of baking powder. Whisk everything together until well combined and there are no lumps. Let this mixture sit for about 10 minutes, allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and soften for a more tender pancake.
Step 2
Combine rolled oats, eggs, milk, salt, and baking powder in a bowl and mix well. Let it rest for about 10 minutes. (Same as previous step)
Step 3
Finely grate the Grana Padano cheese using a food processor or a grater. Grating it finely will help it incorporate smoothly into the batter and distribute the cheesy flavor evenly throughout the pancake.
Step 4
Finely grate the Grana Padano cheese. (Same as previous step)
Step 5
Add the finely grated Grana Padano cheese to the oat mixture that has been resting for 10 minutes. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the batter. The cheese will melt slightly, adding a wonderful savory depth.
Step 6
Add the cheese to the batter and mix. (Same as previous step)
Step 7
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease it with olive oil. Ladle about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot pan, forming them into your desired size. The batter should be thick enough to hold its shape; if it’s too thin, they might spread too much.
Step 8
Grease a heated pan with olive oil, pour the batter, and cook until golden brown on both sides over medium-low heat. (Same as previous step)
Step 9
Cook one side for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to look set and bubbles appear on the surface. Carefully flip the pancake with a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 10
Serve the warm oatmeal cheese pancakes on a plate. Get creative with your toppings! We’ve added fresh arugula for a peppery bite, crisp apple slices for sweetness, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar for tang, and some nuts for crunch. This combination creates a wonderfully complex and satisfying flavor profile.
Step 11
They taste even better with your favorite toppings! We’ve tried arugula, sliced apples, balsamic vinegar, and a few nuts. (Same as previous step)
Step 12
These healthy and delicious oatmeal cheese pancakes are perfect for breakfast or as a guilt-free snack. You can also add a touch of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness if you prefer.
