Date, Cashew, and Maple Granola Pancakes

We’ve never met pancakes we didn’t like, but we really like these granola pancakes. We’re not talking about a sprinkling of granola on top here. This involves homemade granola mixed right into the batter. The crispy clusters provide a super-satisfying texture. We used dates, cashews, and cinnamon to make our granola, but you can switch it up—or take a shortcut and order granola from our Marketplace.

Ingredients

Scale

Granola

  • 3 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole cashews
  • 2/3 cup dried dates (or 5 large Medjool dates), roughly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 big pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • ⅓ cup Coconut Oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pancake Batter

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

  1. To make the granola, preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  3. In a large bowl, add dry ingredients: rolled oats, dates, cashews, cinnamon, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Add maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla. Mix again to combine.
  5. Pour granola onto the lined sheet pan and spread evenly. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and let granola cool completely.
  7. Meanwhile, make your pancake batter: Put dry ingredients in a bowl, make a well, and then add wet ingredients.
  8. Put butter in a pan and bring to medium heat. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour batter into hot pan. Sprinkle granola on top of the pancake in an even layer.
  9. Flip when bubbles start appearing. Your pancake is completely done once both sides are crispy and golden.
  10. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup. Or, consider adding yogurt, fresh fruit like mango, strawberries, and blueberries—whatever you have on hand!

This looks really interesting, in a good way. I sent it to my husband, as he’s the pancake-maker in our household. We’ll make substitutes for the coconut oil and dairy as we don’t eat those. Can’t wait!
