  • Add the oat milk, egg, cream cheese (if using), maple syrup, almond butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Blend at medium speed for 30-60 seconds, or until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough. You might see some oat flecks - that's okay!

Notes

  • If you want a smoother consistency, you can blend the dry ingredients a little further so the oats become more of a flour.
  • You can also replace this with greek yogurt if you prefer.
  • You don't want to over-blend the mixture or it will get too lose and you will get flat pancakes!
