In a blender, pulse the rolled oats until they become a fine flour. Transfer the oat flour to a mixing bowl.
Add the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Whisk to combine the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, mashed banana (or applesauce), maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should be slightly thick but pourable. Add more non-dairy milk if needed to adjust the consistency.
Gently fold in the chopped fresh fruit, distributing it evenly throughout the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil or a neutral-flavored oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spacing them evenly apart. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with additional fruit, maple syrup, or your favorite pancake toppings. Enjoy!
