Oat flour pan bread

We attempted to make a versatile bread that I could cook in a small square pan so that the slices would be like bread, and after a couple of... Failed...attempts, I've come up with this

Oat Flour Pan Bread
by Batter to Bake

1 3/4 cup of ground oat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk( we have used almond and coconut with the same results)
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
3 eggs
Season of choice ( I did cooked onion in the bread last time and it was amazing)

Mix all dry ingredients in  sad separate bowl. 
Mix wet ingredients. 
Mix into dry, try not to over whip. 
Pour about 1/4 cup into small square skillet, or on your griddle in a square shape 
Flip once bubbles start to form. 

Make sure the bread is thick enough to flip. 
Enjoy
