Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup oat flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup, plus more for serving
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Other

  • Olive oil cooking spray
  • Greek yogurt and fresh fruit, for serving

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, and kosher salt until evenly combined.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another medium bowl, whisk the large egg, whole milk, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract thoroughly.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the batter light.
  4. Prepare Air Fryer Dish: Grease a 6-inch pie dish with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking, then pour in about one-quarter cup of the batter.
  5. Cook Pancake: Place the pie dish inside the air fryer basket and cook at 400°F (204°C) for about 3 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and lightly golden on top.
  6. Repeat Cooking: Remove the cooked pancake, clean and re-grease the pie dish if needed, and repeat the process with the remaining batter to make multiple pancakes.
  7. Serve: Top the warm pancakes with Greek yogurt, additional maple syrup, and fresh sliced fruit of your choice for a wholesome and delicious breakfast.

  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy and tender.
  • Cooking time may vary slightly depending on air fryer model and pancake thickness.
  • Adding fresh fruit like berries or banana slices complements the flavors beautifully.
