Equipment
- Vitamix
Ingredients
- 4 cups oats
- 3 cups water
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup applesauce
- 2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat a griddle or pan to medium heat.
- Add all ingredients to a Vitamix blender. Blend until the batter is smooth.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated griddle (or adjust size to your preference).
- Cook until bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, then flip and cook until golden brown.
- As you cook, the oats will absorb water, thickening the batter. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water at a time and stir to maintain a pourable consistency.
