Enjoy healthy oatmeal pancakes with a delicious plum compote.
At a given moment, when I didn't have any flour at home but wanted to start baking pancakes, I saw a pack of oatmeal. As a food blogger, I roam the World Wide Web and was sure I had seen it a few times before. Had to make it work, right?
And then I saw that I also didn't have bananas at home, and that is often used when making these pancakes. So this became an oatmeal pancakes recipe without bananas. Turns out to be fine, and they were delicious.
In season
I got the plums from my plum tree (but you can also get them in the shop during the plum season in summer). A delicious compote of seasonal fruit. Just a bit healthier compared to syrup. And so this recipe for these delightful oatmeal pancakes with plum compote was born. I'm going to make them again soon, and you?

What do you need for Plum Compote with Oatmeal Yogurt Pancakes?
You require the following ingredients to prepare these Oatmeal Pancakes with Plum Compote. You can find the correct amounts in the recipe card at the bottom of the blog:
Ingredients Oatmeal Pancakes
- Yogurt: Makes the batter thicker.
- Egg: Binds the batter.
- Milk: Gives the batter the correct thickness. You get a perfect batter by using the right amount of yogurt and milk.
- Maple syrup: This sap from the maple tree is used as a sweetener
- Oatmeal: A whole-grain cereal made from cut and crushed oat grains. They are often pre-steamed to shorten the preparation time.
- Butter: To fry the pancakes.
Ingredients Plum Compote
- Plums: Usually taste nice and sweet, although there are also sweet and sour varieties. Eat them out of hand or use them in baked goods, jams, and desserts. They are in season between July and September.
- Cinnamon: It has a sweet, woody flavor with a hint of lemon.
- Honey: For slightly sweetening and an extra fruity taste of the compote.
How to prepare Oatmeal Pancakes with no Banana
You can find a printable recipe with a step-by-step description at the bottom of this blog.
- Combine yogurt, egg, milk, and maple syrup in a large bowl. Add the oatmeal and stir through. Let stand for 30 minutes so that the batter thickens.
- Melt butter in a frying pan and pour a ¼ cup of batter into the pan. In a large 10-inch (26 cm) frying pan, you can fry three simultaneously. Bake the pancakes until the top is almost dry, turn over, and cook the other side. About three minutes per side.
- Place the washed, pitted, and finely chopped plums in a saucepan. Pour in the honey.
- Now add the cinnamon and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. The compote is now ready and can be served hot or cold.
Delicious with plum compote, but you could also serve it with plum jam with vanilla, spicy pear jam, and blackberry jam with oregano.
Tips, Substitutions, and Variations
- Instead of maple syrup, you can also mash a banana with a fork and add it.
- Adding some (ground) nuts to the batter is also tasteful. About two tablespoons.
