Healthy Oatmeal Pancakes Recipe

Oats are a great source of vital nutrients, particularly fibres and thus it is ideal for morning  breakfasts. However, I never liked oats prepared by cooking them in water (or milk). Basically, I am not a fan of its slimy appearance and taste. So I started to look for alternate recipes to incorporate oats in our meal. And finally I customized it to a savory version making healthy oatmeal pancakes that fit our likings perfectly.

Now, this recipe is our all time favorite. It is instant and very easy to prepare and ideal for busy morning breakfasts. You can prepare the batter a night before, refrigerate and use it in the next morning to prepare delicious healthy oatmeal pancakes.
