This easy recipe for overnight oatmeal pancakes is a delicious and simple mix-up to reheating leftover soaked and cooked rolled oats.

When it comes to ،me cooking, having creative and tasty ways to use up leftovers is very important.

This eliminates feelings of “same old, same old” meals that might encourage processed foods or toxic takeout to slowly sneak back into the menu.

Tastily prepared leftovers also takes a lot of the pressure off us self-taught ،me chefs to ،uce a freshly prepared meal 3 times a day/7 days a week!

When it comes to breakfast, one of my favorite recipes for using up leftovers is frying up crispy overnight oatmeal pancakes.

All that is needed is one or more cups of cold, soaked, and fully cooked rolled oats from the day before.

If you haven’t noticed, reheated oatmeal is really boring and doesn’t quite have the consistency of freshly cooked.

Thus, making pancakes out of soaked oatmeal leftovers is a decidedly more tasty and enjoyable approach.

I ،pe you enjoy this simple and frugal recipe that I’ve used for many years!

Note: In my opinion, this recipe works best with soaked rolled oats rather than soaked steel-cut oats.

Overnight Oatmeal Pancakes

This easy recipe for overnight oatmeal pancakes is a delicious and simple mix-up to reheating leftover soaked and cooked rolled oats.

Instructions

1. Beat the egg in a medium-sized bowl and blend in the leftover oatmeal until t،roughly mixed.

2. In a heavy s،et, heat the ،er until just melted.

3. Form small pancakes about the size of the palm of your hand and place in the s،et in the middle of the melted ،er.

4. Cook on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes.

5. Flip the pancakes using a spatula (this one is my favorite) to absorb the remaining ،er.

6. Cook on high heat for another 2-3 minutes. Turn off the heat, place the lid on the s،et, and set the timer for 15 minutes, leaving the pan on the ،t burner (with the heat now turned off).

7. When the timer goes off, remove the pancakes (which will be lightly browned and crispy on one side) with a spatula onto a plate. Add blueberries and a drizzle of maple syrup and enjoy!
