Ingredients

    • 1 cup (100 g) oatmeal
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 cup (240 ml) milk
    • 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
    • 3.5 oz (100 g) cheese, grated
    • Salt, to taste
    • 1 teaspoon dry Provençal herbs
    • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
    • Oil for frying

Directions

  • Prepare the Oatmeal:
      • Blend the oatmeal in a blender until it reaches a coarse flour consistency.

     

  • Mix the Batter:
      • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until well combined.
      • Add the ground oatmeal, chopped parsley, grated cheese, salt, Provençal herbs, and chili flakes. Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed.

     

  • Cook the Pancakes:
      • Heat a small amount of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
      • Pour portions of the batter into the skillet to form pancakes. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each pancake.

     

    • Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Serve:
      • Remove pancakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

     

    • Serve warm and enjoy!

    • Use a non-stick skillet for easy flipping and even cooking.
    • Swap parsley with other herbs like cilantro or dill for variety.
  • Grate the cheese finely to ensure it melts evenly throughout the pancakes.
