Can I Put Oats In Pancakes?
This question is a super common one. The answer is yes, you can absolutely put oats in your pancakes! Oats are actually one of my favorite ingredients to use in pancake recipes for a number of reasons. First off, oats can be used to make gluten free pancakes. I like to blend my oats up in a high speed blender to form a nice and smooth batter.
For this recipe specifically, you will use the oats to form the dry base for your vegan peanut butter and jelly pancakes. When combined with the other base ingredients, you will get an ultra moist and delicious stack of vegan pancakes.
Plus, oats are super inexpensive and easy to find at most grocery stores. You guys know I’m all about making budget friendly recipes, and this one is no exception.
Now that we have went over some quick things to note for this recipe, let’s take a look at the list of ingredients you will need to make these peanut butter and jelly banana oat pancakes.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes – Ingredients
- Old Fashioned Rolled Oats – The first ingredient you will need for these pancakes are the rolled oats. You will need to blend the oats up with the other base ingredients to form a nice and smooth batter. The oats serve as the main dry base for this recipe. If you want to make these pancakes gluten free, use your favorite brand of gluten free oats.
- Ripe or Overripe Banana – The next ingredient you will need for this recipe is the ripe or overripe banana. This ingredient adds sweetness and a ton of moisture to your pancakes. The riper your banana is, the sweeter it will be. So, make sure to use one that is either ripe or overripe. If the peel is yellow with brown spots, it is perfect for this recipe.
- Baking Soda – This ingredient acts as the key leavening agent for this recipe.
- Nut Milk – The nut milk serves as the main source of liquid in this recipe. I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but you can use whichever kind you have on hand or prefer.
- Pure Vanilla Extract – This ingredient is used to amplify all of the other flavors present in this recipe.
- Blueberry Jelly – The blueberry jelly is the second topping you will need for these peanut butter and jelly pancakes. I used my homemade blueberry chia seed jam.
- Creamy Peanut Butter – The creamy peanut butter is the first key topping you will need for this recipe. It adds a ton of flavor and richness.
- Pure Maple Syrup – The pure maple syrup is the final topping you will want for these pancakes. This will be adjusted to taste to add moisture and extra sweetness to your pancakes.
