The healthiest pancake

At first I didn’t even wanted to post this picture on my Instagram account. Nothing special I thought. It’s just a one ingredient gluten-free pancake. But I was wrong. You guys loved this picture and I received so many requests as to how to make this healthy pancake that I decided to share my ‘recipe’.

What will you need?

Besides some water you’ll only need (gluten-free) oatmeal. Yes, only oatmeal. You will need oatmeal flour. You can make this very simple yourself by just blending some oats in a blender or food processor. Make a mash by adding some water. And that’s it…ready to bake. You can add alternatively some cinnamon or even mashed bananas, but just one ingredient will already create a perfect gluten-free, sugar-free, vegan, super breakfast.

Health benefits:
