If you&#8217;re using your healthy extra for something else, you will need to syn these at 7 syns. This mixture makes 8 fluffy pancakes. The key to this is to use baking powder, but you don&#8217;t need a lot of it. Using too much baking powder can affect the taste of the pancakes and you&#8217;ll need to syn it at 0.5 syn per 1 tsp if you choose to use more than stated in the recipe! If you like your pancakes quite sweet, then you may need to increase the amount of sweetener used. But remember that if you&#8217;re using more than 1tbsp of sweetener, you&#8217;ll have to count it as 0.5 syn per tablespoon!<\/p>\n<p>Stick to the recipe below and it will be syn free.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to enjoy these on a SP day, you can replace the yogurt with plain natural quark. 2 or 3 tablespoons of quark should be enough.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1142\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1142\" data-attachment-id=\"1142\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/oat-pancakes\/img_20180504_0924291184763146\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3000,2250\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Oat Pancakes\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Oat Pancakes&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Oat Pancakes&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-300x225.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-1024x768.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1142\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Oat Pancakes\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rahema.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/img_20180504_0924291184763146-816x612.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1142\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oat Pancakes<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Serves: <b>1<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Syns: <b>FREE<\/b> (using oats as healthy extra B choice)<\/p>\n<p>Time Taken: <b>45 minutes<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Difficulty: <b>Easy<\/b><\/p>\n<h4>Ingredients<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>40g porridge oats<\/li>\n<li>2 eggs<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 pot of Activia 0% vanilla yogurt (or similar)<\/li>\n<li>1tsp vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li>1tsp sweetner<\/li>\n<li>1\/4tsp baking powder<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Method<\/h4>\n<p>Blitz all ingredients together with a hand blender and let it rest for at least 30 minutes (very important to let it rest so that the mixture can thicken up).<\/p>\n<p>Spray a frying pan with syn free cooking spray of your choice and add a dollop of the mixture to the pan.
