step by step

Method

  1. Boil the lemon

    Step 1

  2. Blend the wet ingredients

    • Put the boiled lemon in a blender with the olive oil, honey and eggs.

    Step 2

  3. Make the batter

    • Pour the blended mixture into a bowl.
    • Add the oat flour, baking powder and salt.
    • Fold with a spatula instead of whisking, because of the oats.
    Step 3

  4. Rest the batter

    • Cover the bowl with a towel and let it sit at room temperature so the texture doesn't turn gummy.
