These Vegan Blueberry Oat Flour Pancakes are simple to make with no banana and no egg. They are dairy-free and are made with oat flour so they are also gluten-free! These pancakes are a quick and delicious breakfast.
I like to have a wide variety of breakfast recipes for weekdays and weekends. I have home that you can make and keep in the freezer for an ultra quick weekday breakfast like my Vegan Banana Coffee Cake Muffins, and some that are meant for a weekend like Biscoff Pancakes or Vegan Honey Buns.
These Vegan Blueberry Oat Flour Pancakes are quick to make, but probably fall into the weekend breakfast category, just like my Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes. They are a simple and delicious plant based breakfast that requires no special equipment (no blender!) and basic ingredients.

Ingredient Notes
Oat Flour: This recipe uses store-bought oat flour, so you don't need a blender! I like Bob's Red Mill.
Non-Dairy Milk: I used oat milk, but any non-dairy milk will work.
Applesauce: I little apple sauce adds natural sweetness and moisture to the vegan oat flour pancakes since they are made without banana.
Vegan Butter: A little melted vegan butter goes into the batter, but you will also need some for the pan!
Baking Powder: Baking powder makes these pancakes fluffy!
Blueberries: I like frozen wild blueberries for this because I think they have the most flavor.

How to Top the Pancakes
I like to top my oat flour pancakes with more vegan butter and maple syrup, but you could also make:
- Bourbon Maple Syrup to drizzle on top.
- My delicious and easy Blueberry Compote Recipe to amp up the blueberry flavor of these Vegan Oat Flour Pancakes.
- Or my Vegan Cinnamon Honey Butter to slather all over them.
Recipe FAQs
I find these pancakes are best if they are allowed to cool completely, then frozen. Then when you want to eat them, reheat in a toaster oven.
Yes! just be sure you grind the oat flour very finely in a blender.
Expert Tips and Tricks
Be sure to whisk the batter very well. These pancakes are gluten-free so you don't need to worry about activating gluten, here!
And don't skip the 5 minute rest time. It will allow the oat flour time to absorb the liquid. The batter will thicken a little bit during this time.
I recommend that you use a non-stick pan to cook these Vegan Blueberry Oat Flour Pancakes if you have one.

Love these! Super filling and lighter than most oat flour pancakes I’ve made, plus the blueberries add a delicious flavor. My 10-month old loves these and we make them at least once a week, I just omit the butter and salt and they are still super tasty.
