Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup oats
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp heaping yogurt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tsp butter or coconut oil (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: Use a food processor, blender, or hand blender to combine the bananas, oats, eggs, yogurt, baking powder, and vanilla or cinnamon if using. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Heat the pan: Warm a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the butter or coconut oil and let it melt to coat the surface evenly.
  3. Cook the pancakes: Pour the batter into the pan to form small, palm-sized pancakes. Reduce the heat slightly to prevent burning, as the pancakes cook quickly. Wait until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set before flipping.
  4. Flip and finish cooking: Using a large spatula, carefully flip each pancake. Cook until the other side is golden brown, then remove from the heat.
  5. Serve: Serve immediately plain or topped with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, peanut butter, honey, or extra butter.

Notes

  • Prepare the batter the night before and store it in an airtight container in the fridge to save time in the morning.
  • When refrigerated, the batter will thicken due to oats absorbing liquid; add 1-2 tablespoons of water and stir well before cooking.
  • Use medium to low heat to avoid burning the pancakes.
  • These pancakes are naturally gluten-free if using gluten-free oats.
