Rise and shine, flavor lovers! If you’re craving a breakfast that’s equal parts comforting and delicious, these Cinnamon Honey Oatmeal Pancakes are about to become your new go-to. They’re fluffy, hearty, and packed with warm cinnamon and a touch of honey sweetness—perfect for a slow weekend morning or a quick weekday treat. Let’s dive into this breakfast bliss!

Ingredients (Makes 8-10 Pancakes)

• 1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned, not instant)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 2 tbsp honey (plus extra for drizzling)
• 1 large egg
• 2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Butter or oil for cooking
• Optional toppings: fresh berries, sliced bananas, or maple syrup

Instructions

1. Blend the Oats: Toss the rolled oats into a blender or food processor and pulse until they’re a coarse flour-like texture. This gives your pancakes that hearty oatmeal vibe!
2. Mix the Dry Stuff: In a large bowl, combine the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir it up so the cinnamon is evenly distributed.
3. Whisk the Wet Stuff: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, honey, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth and golden.
4. Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and stir gently until just mixed—don’t overdo it; a few lumps are fine!
5. Cook ‘Em Up: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on top, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
6. Serve: Stack those beauties on a plate, drizzle with extra honey, and top with your favorites—berries, bananas, or a splash of maple syrup. Dig in while they’re warm!

Why It’s a Breakfast Win

These pancakes bring together the wholesome goodness of oats with a hint of spice and natural sweetness. They’re filling enough to keep you going but light enough to leave room for that second cup of coffee.
