Jenelle's Whole Wheat & Oat Pancakes

Pancakes – need I say more?  I adore this recipe for a weekend breakfast and the fact that its made using whole wheat flour and oats, ensures I step into the weekend on the right foot.  They also make for a great snack and work well in the school lunch box.
 
Makes 10 small pancakes
 
WHAT YOU NEED:
 

• ¾ cup wholemeal flour
• ¼ rolled oats
• 1 egg
• 1 cup milk
• ½ TSP baking powder
• ½ TBS brown sugar
• ¼ TSP baking soda
• Spray extra-virgin olive oil (optional)

 
WHAT YOU DO:
 

1. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the egg and milk
2. Add in all the dry ingredients, mixing well to combine
3. Heat up a large non-stick fry pan and pour in small scoops of the pancake batter (you make like to use the spray oil to prevent sticking)
4. Cook for a minute or so, until you see small bubbles forming on the surface
5. Flip the pancakes over with a spatula and cook for a further minute
6. Serve with topping delicious toppings.  Here, I’ve used fresh strawberries, natural yoghurt, a drizzle of honey and a scattering of sunflower seeds
