Earl Grey Oat Pancakes

These fluffy little stacks of Earl Grey Oat Pancakes have a lavender-like vanilla cashew frosting and basically taste like dessert for breakfast. And the best part is they’re made with pretty clean ingredients so there’s really no excuse!

You know my Fluffiest Healthy Oat Pancakes are my new favourite, but adding some loose leaf earl grey to the batter was the move. These are SUCH a treat, I promise.

Servings 8 small pancakes

Ingredients

  

For the Pancakes

• 1 cup oat flour
• ¼ cup tapioca flour
• 1 tbsp + 1 tsp loose leaf earl grey tea (more or less, depending on your tea)
• 2 tsp baking powder
• pinch of salt
• 2 tbsp coconut sugar
• 1 cup unsweetened plain coconut yogurt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 eggs (sub whipped aquafaba to make vegan)
• 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• butter for frying (or sub vegan butter)

For the Cashew Frosting

• ½ cup raw cashews
• 4-5 tbsp oat milk (as needed to blend)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp maple syrup
• a few raspberries + pinch of blue spirulina for colour (can sub other food colouring)

Instructions

 

• In a medium bowl, combine dry ingredients.
• In a separate bowl, combine wet ingredients. (If using whipped aquafaba, do not add this till step 4.)
• Slowly pour in the wet mixture to combine it with the dry, folding the batter as you pour.
• Continue folding until the batter is just incorporated. Try not to over mix. The batter should be relatively thick but fluffy (small lumps are okay).
• Transfer to the fridge and let the batter sit for 15-20 mins.
• Preheat a pan over low-medium heat with a little bit of butter or vegan butter.
• Once the heat is even, spoon the batter onto the pan to form your pancakes. Do not overcrowd the pan.
• Cook the pancakes with a lid on until small bubbles start to form or the bottoms are lightly golden brown. Do not flip too early or this will make them flat.
• Gently flip the pancakes and cook for a few more minutes (with the lid on), or until lightly golden brown.
• Stack and serve with cashew frosting, any other desired toppings and maple syrup. Enjoy!
