Oatmeal pancakes recipe

Ingredients you need:

  • 50 grams oatmeal
  • 6 egg whites
  • Agave syrup (to taste)
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • As an accompaniment: fresh natural fruit, honey, fruit  jam or agave syrup.

Preparation of the oatmeal pancakes:

First put the sifted oatmeal in a large bowl. Separate the egg yolks from the whites and beat the whites a little in a separate bowl. Add the beaten egg whites to the bowl of sifted oatmeal. Add a little agave syrup to sweeten and mix everything well, beating carefully.

While you prepare the mixture, put a few drops of extra virgin olive oil in a pan (to prevent them from sticking when cooking), and put the pan over medium heat.

When the pan is hot, pour the mixture to form pancakes. Wait a few minutes until it is done and browned on one side, to turn it carefully with the help of a spatula, and let it cook on the other side. Then carefully place each pancake on a large plate. Repeat the same operation until you have made all the pancakes.

When serving them you can add a little fruit on top, honey, your favorite natural fruit jam or a little more of the same agave syrup.
