Vegan Oat Blueberry Pancakes

With blueberries at the peak of their season, I couldn’t stop myself from trying out a new recipe!

Here’s the perfect vegan breakfast that’ll satisfy your sweet tooth while keeping you full all morning long!

This recipe makes enough pancakes for the whole family and with all the added health benefits, you won’t be complaining when they ask for seconds!

Looking to a little flare to your Sunday morning family breakfast? Look no further! The blueberry topping recipe included at the bottom of this post is sure to have this dish included in the #CleanPlateClub.

I’ll definitely be making these more often now that cooler weather is on its way, plus they make great breakfasts before a busy day of school and can be made as a morning meal prep!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 1/4 cup oat milk
  • 1 cup rolled oats (food-processed, if preferred)
  • 1/2 cup vegan greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt

Plain Greek yogurt will keep the batter from getting too sweet. Vanilla is also subtle.

Don’t leave them in your refrigerator for longer than three days or so, as it contains perishable.

Instructions

  1. Combine flour, oats, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, stir in oat milk and vegan greek yogurt.
  2. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry, careful not to mix too much. No one wants a flat pancake!
  3. Add 3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries to your batter, careful not to over-stir. This results in a flatter pancake, so folding in extra ingredients is the way to go!
  4. In a pan on low to medium heat, pour a small amount of batter and let sit until small bubbles rise to the top.
  5. Flip when the edges turn golden brown and the top side of your pancake is full of bubbles.
  6. The second side of your pancake will cook much faster than the other, so stay attentive!
  7. Serve with fresh blueberries, maple syrup, and powdered sugar as preferred. Enjoy!

Blueberry Maple Syrup Topping

Who remembers these journals? They were the very f Who remembers these journals? They were the very first product I ever made with my TUO photography on it and I still have a couple leftover 💕 I of course kept one for myself and have since filled it almost halfway full of journal entries straight from the heart

What would you use this journal for?
Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb cracker recipe?! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I made these for our trip to Deep Creek as we always stop by @fireflymarketdeepcreek and they made the perfect base for all the different flavors we got 🤤

I’m in the final stages of getting this posted, so keep an eye out!
I’ve been considering an update to last year’s I’ve been considering an update to last year’s post on fall earring inspiration… these definitely need to make it on there!
There’s always something to admire in the space There’s always something to admire in the space around us. This little guy was happy buzzing around (quite loudly) while I washed my car and I couldn’t help but watch him for a while. If you’re lucky, you can catch them leaping from one flower to the next, letting their wings dance around in the wind rather than putting them to work.
In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is 7 years old as of August 2023 and I couldn’t be more proud of where it’s come in all these years. I know it’s been pushed to the back burner recently as my other business has picked up, but I can’t wait to make more TUO content for you in the coming weeks ☺️ thank you for sticking with me all this time, and get ready for new posts by #theuntamedoptimist coming soon!

I’m definitely sharing my Italian herb cracker recipe with you cause it was just too damn good not to, and I’ve got a few new ideas brewing for my local readers 😉 you’ll have to stay tuned for that one though!
There’s something so special about the wildflowe There’s something so special about the wildflowers that pop up around our garden spaces. The ones that are planted by the birds and cultivated by only Mother Nature’s touch.

Some might consider them weeds, but I know they serve a purpose. Take a moment to appreciate the ‘weeds’ in your yard today.
Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful for the long lasting blooms we get this time of year. I made a point to scatter the Hostas around the garden beds earlier this season in an effort to do two things:

Toward the end of last summer, the hostas had completely outgrown their space and weren’t living up to their potential. Dividing them filled the otherwise empty spaces in our beds whilst allowing each individual plant to grow bigger to fill it in.

While the largest section of Hostas wasn’t quite as showy as last year, our garden is already fuller and will only fill in more as the years go on. Turns out, plants and people aren’t so different if you think about it 🤔
It’s important to be present in each moment as i It’s important to be present in each moment as it comes. I try to remember this as often as I can and my garden is often the best reminder.

Each bloom changes day by day. The colors and conditions are always a sight to see and I don’t think I’ll ever not look forward to it. Nothing beats an evening stroll during harvest season.

Ask yourself, how do you ground yourself in the present? There are more opportunities than you may expect.
