Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1 ripe banana
- 0.75 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg (optional for extra fluffiness)
- 1 tablespoon cooking spray or coconut oil
- 1 cup fresh berries or sliced fruit (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
Instructions
Add the oats to a blender and blend until they turn into a fine flour-like consistency.
Peel the banana and add it to the blender along with the almond milk, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and optional egg. Blend until the batter is smooth and creamy.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a cooking spray or a small amount of coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, gently spreading it into a circle if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as necessary between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with fresh berries or sliced fruit and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, if desired.
