    Easy Oat Milk Pancakes with 'Nutella' (Crêpe Style)

    Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe

    I'm a big fan of crêpe style pancakes when they're filled with delicious ingredients and these dairy-free 'Nutella' packed oat milk pancakes are no exception. They're loaded with beautiful fresh fruits, as well as being dusted with sweet powdered sugar.

    I choose to fill these with a mouth-watering vegan chocolate hazelnut spread which compliments the fresh bananas and fresh strawberries perfectly.

    This recipe can be made in less than 30 minutes too, which is a big win!

    These crêpes are generally super tasty to eat on their own, but I also love to serve them with cold, dairy-free ice cream, while they're still warm.

    If you love treats that are extra sweet, chocolatey and all-round heavenly, then these are definitely calling your name.

    You may also like my vegan chocolate cinnamon french toast rolls, vegan chocolate banana pops and vegan brown sugar cereal pancakes which just like these, are breakfast treats that I make again and again.

    • Easy Oat Milk Pancakes with 'Nutella' (Crêpe Style)

    Why You Will Love These Pancakes

    • Great Fillings - The bananas are strawberries really compliment the dairy-free chocolate hazelnut spread. If you want to spice it up a little more, why not use my vegan pan-fried caramelized bananas instead of ordinary, chopped bananas which will take the pancakes to the next level.
    • Quick & Easy - This recipe doesn't take long to make. All you need to do is make the batter, fry the oat milk pancakes and add the fillings.
    • Thin Texture - These are authentically thin like good crêpe pancakes should be. They're not on the thicker side of the pancake spectrum like my vegan double chocolate chip pancakes, for example.
    • Allergy Friendly & Plant Based - This vegan oat milk pancakes recipe is completely vegan and dairy free.

    Ingredient Notes

    The seven recipe ingredients individually laid-out on white marble that you will need to make my oat milk pancakes.
    • Almond extract - Adds a nice, unique flavor the the pancakes. I also used it in my vegan blueberry almond cake and vegan flourless almond chocolate cake. I highly recommend that you use it in this recipe so that you can try it out for yourself.
    • Oat milk - Along with soy milk, this plant milk creates the best crêpes with amazing textures. Luckily it is very easy to find in grocery stores these days. If you haven't made pancakes with oat milk yet, what are you waiting for?
    • Vegan chocolate hazelnut spread - This is going to be your vegan 'Nutella'. I used Nature's store chocolate spread but you use any alternative that you like.
    • Strawberries & Bananas - These are two fruits that not only compliment each other, but they also taste great with the pancakes and the chocolate too. Ultimately, you can use any fruits that you like.

    See recipe card for full information on individual ingredients and quantities.

    Substitutions & Variations

    • You can swap out your all-purpose flour for regular gluten-free all-purpose flour to make them gluten-free. The texture of the pancakes will be a little chewier this way but still very tasty. Also make sure that the vegan chocolate spread that you choose to use is also gluten-free.
    • If you're not a fan of vegan chocolate spread or the fruit that I recommend, this is fine as you can add different fillings. Spread on something such as, my vegan mincemeat, vegan dulce de leche caramel, peanut butter or even Biscoff spread. As for other fruits, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries also work very well.

    How To Make Oat Milk Pancakes

    For the full method, please refer to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

    The batter for my vegan oat milk crepes just after being whisked inside a bowl.

    1: Make your pancake batter.

    A hot frying pan, greased with oil.

    2: Grease a pan and heat it up.

    A super thin crepe frying inside the hot pan.

    3: Fry a thin and evenly spread out pancake inside the hot pan, until it is golden brown on the bottom side.

    A golden brown, cooked crepe inside the pan.

    4: Flip the pancake, and fry the other side until it is also golden brown.

    The fried crepe is on a white plate. A slit has been made from the rim to the center.

    5: Create a slit along the radius (center to rim) of each of the pancakes.

    The crepe has been divided into quarters. Two quarters have been decorated with vegan chocolate hazelnut spread, one with sliced bananas and one with sliced strawberries.

    6: Divide the pancake into quarters. Spread chocolate spread onto two diagonal quarters. Add chopped strawberries and bananas to the other quarters.

    One of the chocolate quarters has been folded over the strawberries.

    7: Fold over one of the quarters.

    The strawberry quarter has now been folded over the other chocolate section.

    8: Fold over the next quarter.

    Finally, the second chocolate section has been folded over the banana quarter, creating a crepe wrap.

    9: Finally, fold over the final quarter until a pancake 'pocket wrap' is created.

    Expert Tips

    Use a hot pan - If your crepe pan or frying pan isn't piping hot when you add the batter, the pancakes won't cook thoroughly. The first pancake that is cooked inside the pan is never the best but after that, the only way is up!

    Don't let the pancakes stick - Once the pancakes have set a little over the heat, lift the edges with a fork carefully without breaking them. This way it will be far easier to flip the pancake when it's time. If the pan has been well-greased and is over the correct temperature, this shouldn't be an issue.

    No egg substitutes need for these pancakes - Usually, an authentic crêpe style pancake isn't vegan. They tend to contain ingredients such as eggs, milk and sometimes, even butter. They great thing about this recipe is that the pancakes taste just like their non-vegan counterparts and they don't even container any of the classic 'egg replacers'.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can you replace milk with oat milk pancakes?

    Replacing other kinds of milks with oat milk is a great option for your pancakes. It has a neutral taste which isn't overpowering. This helps them to retain their deliciousness.

    What are crepes?

    Crepes are a variety of pancakes which are renowned for being super thin like paper. The batter is also generally fan thinner than your average pancake batter. As they are so thin, it makes it easier to roll them up or fold them with fillings.

    How long does oat pancake batter last?

    Store uncooked oat milk pancake batter inside the fridge for up to 2 days, covered with plastic wrap.

    How to store these oat milk pancakes?

    Once the pancakes are cooked, store them inside the fridge for up to 3 days. Fold them and place into airtight containers so that they don't become dry.

    Can you substitute plant milk for water in vegan crepes?

    A blend of oat milk and water would give you fantastic results in terms of both texture and taste. However, if you don't want to use oat milk at all, you can ultimately swap it out for water.

    Ingredients

    For the pancake batter:

    • 190 g all-purpose flour sifted
    • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
    • 25 ml canola oil
    • 0.5 teaspoon almond extract
    • 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 400 ml oat milk room temperature

    For the filling:

    • Dairy-free chocolate hazelnut spread to taste
    • Chopped strawberries to taste
    • Chopped bananas to taste
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    Make the pancakes:

    • Add the flour to a large mixing bowl then pour in all of your other pancake batter ingredients. Whisk the ingredients together well until all lumps have gone. A few lumps are okay.
    • Brush a non-stick, large crepe pan or frying pan or with a small drop of oil (2 teaspoons) or 1 Tablespoon of vegan butter and place it over a medium-high heat.
    • Pour roughly 1/3 cup (80ml) of pancake batter into the frying pan. Tip the pan, rotating in a circular motion until the pancake is super thin like a crêpe and covers the circumference.
    • Cook for roughly 2 minutes on one side. The pancake will turn golden brown on the bottom. Your pancake should also loosen by itself when crispy but if it’s a little stuck, use a metal fork or a flat-edged tool to loosen the edges carefully so that it can be flipped.
    • Flip the pancake and cook for a further 30-60 seconds on the other side until golden brown. Repeat this process until all the batter has been used.

    Garnish the pancakes:

    • You can decorate the pancakes with the chocolate spread, bananas and strawberries as you wish. I like to divide my pancake into quarters and fold it over itself with the fillings inside. (See the process shots in the blog post to see how I fold these pancakes).
