Seeing as breakfast is my favorite part of the day, I'm always looking to try and create new recipes. My morning staples are always blueberries, almond milk, and oats, so finding different variations can be fun. These pikelets are a new favorite of mine and I can't get enough of them. This is a recipe that I've adapted from my favorite Auzzie cook, Lola Berry, who I have mentioned a million times before. Her cookbooks are always full of healthy recipes and tips for general well-being too. I can't recommend her enough if you are looking for clean-eating ideas, or if you have food allergies.
This recipe is super-quick to make, I will quite often come home from the gym and whip some of these up in about twenty minutes. This recipe will make one large serving or two smaller serves, but I'm always up for devouring quite a few, so this is one serving for me. They're super-filling and have such a lovely texture thanks to the oats.
Ingredients: (8 Pikelets)
60g (Just over a 1/2 cup) Oat Bran or Oat Flour
1/2 cup Rolled Oats
1/2 cup Almond Milk
1 Egg
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
1/2 Cup Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Coconut Oil for cooking
Maple Syrup for serving
Method:
Simply combine all of the ingredients into a medium sized bowl and whisk together until smooth.
Heat a fry-pan over a medium-high heat and add about a tablespoon of coconut oil.
Once the oil has melted, use a 1/4 cup scoop to spoon four serves of the mixture into the pan.
Cook well on eat side until golden, about 3-5 minutes to ensure it's cooked all the way through.
To serve, drizzle the pikelets in maple syrup or natural yogurt and enjoy!
I hope you enjoy this recipe! I've been obsessed with making these lately, and the best part is that they're super-healthy for you too. Such a great way to start your day.
