How to make Banana Oats Pancakes
Prepare the Batter
In a blender or food processor, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Blend until the oats turn into a fine flour.
Add the banana, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the blender. Blend until smooth and well combined. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it's too thick, add a little more milk.
Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a round shape if needed.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes stacked with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, sliced bananas, honey, maple syrup, or nuts.
Enjoy
Enjoy your nutritious and delicious Banana Oats Pancakes as a hearty breakfast or snack!
Tips & Tricks
If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk to reach the desired consistency.
For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of vanilla extract to the batter.
Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
