Ingredients for Barley Oat Pancakes

  • 1 ½ cups barley flour
  • ½ cup oat flour
  • Sodium Free Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups nonfat milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons light olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons clear honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Maple Syrup

How to Make Barley Oat Pancakes

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups barley flour, ½ cup oat flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder (sodium-free preferred, but regular works too), and ½ teaspoon salt.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups nonfat milk, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons light olive oil, 2 tablespoons clear honey, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix!
  4. Heat a lightly oiled large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
  5. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Bubbles will appear on the surface before flipping.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings – maple syrup, honey, fruit, or whipped cream!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
