Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the oats

Place oats in a food processor or blender. Pulse until coarsely ground but not as fine as flour.

2
Combine dry ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together ground oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

3
Prepare the apples

Wash the apples thoroughly. Peel the apples. Core and remove seeds. Grate the apples using the large holes of a box grater. Squeeze lemon juice over grated apples to prevent browning.

4
Combine wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.

5
Mix wet and dry ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are fine.

6
Fold in the apples

Add the grated apples to the batter. Fold in gently until evenly distributed.

7
Rest the batter

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This allows the oats to absorb some of the liquid.

8
Heat the pan

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.

9
Cook the pancakes

Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

10
Flip the pancakes

Flip each pancake with a spatula. Cook for another 2 minutes on the second side until golden brown.

11
Continue cooking

Add more butter to the pan as needed between batches. Continue cooking pancakes until all batter is used.

12
Keep pancakes warm

Place cooked pancakes on a plate in a warm oven (200°F) while cooking the remaining batter.

13
Check for doneness

Ensure pancakes are cooked through by pressing lightly in the center. They should spring back when fully cooked.

14
Serve

Stack pancakes on plates. Serve with maple syrup, additional sliced apples, yogurt, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
