Notes

  • Since we are using oat four in this spinach pancake recipe instead of regular flour to keep it gluten free, it tends to yield a thicker batter. For this reason, you won’t get the same bubbling effect to indicate when the pancake is ready to be flipped. So instead, look for browning around the edges of the pancakes to indicate flipping time.
  • While oats are naturally gluten-free, if you are making this for someone with a wheat allergy, be sure to make sure the oats were processed in a facility that is gluten-free as there could be cross-contamination. You can also get certified gluten-free oat flour if you prefer for this BLW green pancake recipe.
