Lemon Chia Seeds Oats Pancakes with healthy chia seeds and zesty lemon are a quick and easy way to start your day!
We love pancakes and mix it up between these Oatmeal Pancakes or the Classic Pancakes. All are filling and equally delicious!
Chia seeds are a great addition in this recipe. We are getting extra nutrition and a little added crunch here and there. Chia seeds contain omega 3 (a great source for vegans) and it’s a complete protein.
Adding zesty lemon makes for a bright flavor anytime of the day. You can always increase the lemon zest in the recipe if you simply love that lemon flavor.
