Instructions
- Place the oil, ricotta, milk, lemon juice, zest, 1 1/2 cups oats, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, baking powder, and salt in a blender.
- Blend until the batter is almost smooth, stopping a couple of times to scrape down the sides of the blender.
- Once the batter is smooth, stir in the remaining 1/2 cup of oats and fresh blueberries (no need to blend). Allow the batter to sit for 10 minutes.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over low heat. Lightly drizzle with a bit of vegetable oil or spray with cooking oil spray. As soon as the pan is heated, pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden.
- Serve with maple syrup, fresh blueberries and blueberry preserve, if desired.
Notes
- Storing and freezing leftovers:
- In the refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- To freeze: Flash freeze the pancakes by placing them on a pan (not touching), and freeze for about 30 minutes. Then, transfer them to freezer-safe bags or containers, and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. Label the bag with the date!
- Reheat: Once you’re ready to eat, you can reheat from frozen! Microwave for 30-60 seconds or until warm. You can also heat these in a toaster, toaster oven, or air fryer.
