Anything healthy and delicious is game for me. I love how easy and versatile this Oats Pancake recipe is. With a handful of basic ingredients found at home, you can easily make these pancakes at home. My favorite add ons are fresh fruits, especially blueberries, strawberries, kiwi and honey while for my girl it's always her favorite chocolate chips with chocolate sauce.

Like I said that these Pancakes are versatile, I added my own touch by caramelizing just ripen robust bananas in a caramel sauce, ohh boyy they are sooo good!! This was completely spontaneous, I usually don't do these extra sauces, unless it's for some special occasion. But this one is such a keeper! I know the pictures don't look that tempting, but the truth is they dont do justice to how yum the sauce is that goes so well with theseoat pancakes.

These pancakes make a great lunchbox idea for kids, they are yummy and healthy too. I was first treated to these yummy goodies when  my friend cum relative invited me to her home for breakfast and I was wowed by how easy yet yummy they were and I couldn't clearly make out that it was prepared using something like oats that is fibrous yet very difficult to convince the kids to eat. Such a great idea! Thanks Buraida for introducing Oats Pancakes to me. <3

If you are in a hurry these pancakes are the best as they can be completely made directly in a blender or made using a hand held blender like I did. So much less dishes to wash and directly pour the batter to the butter greased pan and voila! So easy peesy! Let's see how it's made...

Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancakes

Ingredients :

• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup patent flour/ all purpose flour
• 1/2 cup full fat milk at room temperature  
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 3 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract 
• A pinch of salt
• 1/4 Blueberries or Blueberry Compote (any berries of your choice)

1. Preheat the cast iron pan in a preheated oven at 200 °C for around 5 minutes. 
2. In a bowl incorporate all the ingredients like eggs, flour, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla and combine well using a whisk. 
3. Now safely remove the cast iron pan from the oven using mittens and drop in 3 tbsp of butter and swirl the pan so that the bottom of the pan is covered in butter. 
4. Pour in your batter to the hot and buttered pan and drop in your blueberries, preferably Compote and allow to bake for 15-18 minutes, until the Dutch baby pancake is puffed or the sides turn golden brown at the edges. 
5. Carefully remove the pan from the hot oven using mittens and serve immediately with your favorite toppings and sauce. 

• Use cast iron for best results. However any type of Dutch oven or oven safe casserole dish would do. 
• Dutch Baby Pancakes require a good amount of butter, which adds to its taste and also helps the pancake to come off the pan easily. 
• The pancake can rise and have a shapeless outcome which is totally natural and has a divine beauty in itself. 
• You may prepare these pancakes without any berries or you may use any berry sauce, fresh fruits or Icing sugar as a garnish. 

1. Combine Chia seeds, Oats, Almond milk, Salt, Cinnamon Powder, Maple Syrup and Honey in a mason jar or a glass container. Give it a good shake or mix.
2. Place it in the refrigerator overnight.
3. Give the mixture a good stir to make sure the chia seeds have soaked up all the goodness.
4. You may add in berry puree or fruit smoothie for some extra craziness, but I prefer bite-size fruits in my jar.
5. Top up with some cereals for crunch, any dry fruits (I used walnuts), fruits and berries. (all these are optional)
6. Voila! Your Oats is ready to be relished.

• 1½ Cups of All Purpose Flour
• 2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1 Tablespoon Sugar (Optional)
• 1 Egg
• 1¼ Cup Milk
• ¼ Cup Melted Butter
• ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
• A pinch of salt 

1. In a large bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and salt with a wooden spoon. Set to the side.
2. In a smaller bowl crack in the egg and pour in the milk.
3. Add the melted butter and vanilla essence to the egg and milk and use a fork to mix together until everything is well combined.
4. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet. Fold the batter together with a wooden spoon until there are no longer any large lumps.
5. To cook the pancakes heat a heavy based pan like cast iron over medium-low heat. When the pan is hot add a small amount of butter and ⅓ cup of the pancakes batter.
6. Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes each side. Repeat with remaining batter
