Then please stir again to even out batter even more.
Please pour a couple of teaspoons of olive oil into a medium pan, & place such over medium heat; a setting of 4 on many ranges.
After oil has heated some, please stir batter yet once more & pour such into the pan.

Notes:
This recipe should produce an oat flour flat bread that is a bit like a broad thin pancake. I tend to use such more as a tortilla, or 2 pieces as sandwich bread more often than I use such as injera, an Eastern African bread from which one often tears off pieces with which to scoop up other food. In composition, & method of preparation, such seems more akin to injera than other bread, however.* I tend to slide oat injera onto a plate & then flip such from that plate back into the pan.
