Step 1
Start by mixing the milk and lemon juice in a bowl, then let it sit for about 10 minutes until it starts to thicken a little. Once that’s ready, stir in the oats, cover the bowl, and pop it in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight. When you’re ready to cook, whisk the eggs, flour, baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, and salt into the oat mixture until everything is well combined. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Spoon large dollops of batter onto the hot surface and cook until you see bubbles forming and the edges look set, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the flapjacks carefully and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until they’re golden brown. Keep going until you’ve used up all the batter, then serve warm and enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
These flapjacks are a perfect make-ahead breakfast that saves you time in the morning. They combine the hearty texture of oats with a touch of sweetness, making them both filling and delicious. Plus, they can be easily customized with your favorite fruits or nuts.
How to serve
Serve warm or cold with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Adding fresh berries or sliced bananas on top adds a nice burst of flavor. These flapjacks also pair well with a dollop of yogurt for extra creaminess.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen individually and reheated in the toaster or microwave for a quick snack. Make sure they cool completely before storing to keep them fresh longer.
