coconut oat pancakes

Slimming World syn free coconut pancakes

Yes, you read it right! These pancakes are completely free on Slimming World, provided you use the porridge oats as your Healthy B. I found this recipe on VIPXO's blog and have adapted it slightly to make these super simple pancakes gorgeously coconutty. And I can honestly say they taste amazing - you wouldn't know they are made from oats. Of course, you could use a vanilla yogurt instead of coconut if you fancy. As you can see from my pictures, this recipe makes a fairly decent stack of pancakes - around six or seven depending on size. You do have to leave the oats to soak up the yoghurt overnight; something to remember!

You will need 

35g porridge oats

Half a coconut Muller Light 

2 eggs

2 tbsp sweetener 

Start by mixing the porridge oats and Muller Light (just half a tub) into a small mixing bowl. Cover with cling film and leave in the fridge overnight.

The next day, give the oats and yogurt mixture a stir through and then beat in the eggs and sweetener with a whisk. Spray FryLight into a non-stick pan, and then fry as you would regular American-style pancakes; a couple of minutes on each side on a medium heat. 

I've served mine with the remaining coconut Muller Light, natural fat-free yogurt and sliced banana - all free on SW. A teaspoon-sized drizzle of Sweet Freedom Coconut Choc Shot is 0.5 syns - you can buy this from Holland and Barrett. 

I posted another grain-free pancake recipe here - equally as delicious and guilt-free!
