Notes

Storage: First allow pancakes to cool to room temperature, then wrap them tightly or place them in an airtight container. Transfer to the refrigerator for storage. Homemade strawberry pancakes will last three to four days in the refrigerator.

Freezer: Pack cooled strawberry pancakes tightly in a freezer bag and transfer to the freezer. They will last for up to three months.

Reheat: To reheat strawberry pancakes, place them on a sheet pan, cover with foil, and bake at 350° for about 5 minutes until warmed through (longer if the pancakes were frozen). To microwave, place them on a microwave-safe plate and cover them with a damp paper towel or microwave-safe cover. Heat on high, 30 seconds at a time, until warm.

Original Flourless Strawberry Pancakes Recipe

1 cup rolled oats
1/4 unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup mashed banana or 2 bananas
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup strawberries plus more for serving
Maple syrup for serving

Instructions

In a blender, add the rolled oats and blend until the oats become flour-like. Remove the oat flour from the blender and set aside.
Add the almond milk, bananas and apple cider vinegar to the blender, and blend until the mixture is smooth with no big lumps.
Transfer the oat flour to the blender. Then add baking powder, cinnamon, strawberries and pulse a few times to combine, being careful not to over blend.
Heat a nonstick griddle over medium-low heat. Spray with coconut oil cooking spray or leave the pan dry.
Pour 1/3 cup of the batter into the hot griddle. Place the sliced strawberries on top. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the edges firm up and you can slide spatula under the pancake. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through. Repeat for the remaining batter. Makes 4 pancakes.
