Your in-laws are here for the holidays, or maybe friends from out of town. You want to impress them! But God forbid they see you pull out a box mix of pancakes (even though we all do in a pinch). I have just the solution. These homemade, simple, whole grain vegan pancakes are just what you and your family need. Good news! They come together in 20 minutes, 1 bowl, completely from scratch! You will be the breakfast hero after all. These pancakes are wholesome thanks to a mix of rolled oats, whole wheat flour, and spelt flour! Spelt flour is new to my kitchen but has been around for centuries. It’s an ancient grain that has a slightly nutty, sweet flavor. It’s also easy to digest and higher in protein than whole wheat flour, making it ideal for these pancakes as well as many other baked goods where traditional flours are used. These cakes are also naturally sweetened with maple syrup, and olive oil keeps them both moist and heart healthy. Hello healthy breakfast. Beyond being healthy, they also taste amazing!

A couple of these along with a green smoothie would certainly do the trick! If you make these pancakes, be sure to let us know! Leave a comment or take a picture and tag it #minimalistbaker on Instagram so we can see. We love seeing our creations in your kitchens. Or, Pin it to save for later! I personally love keeping a pancake board for when the mood strikes (you know, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and most Saturdays). Cheers!
