These incredibly easy banana oatmeal pancakes are healthy, delicious, gluten free, and made with no added sugars right in your blender. Which makes them the perfect breakfast for the health conscious person.
Fluffy, soft banana oatmeal pancakes are the perfect healthy choice for this Sundays brunch. Top with fresh fruit or drizzle with pure maple syrup. You wont believe how easy they are to make.
Do I have to use unsweetened vanilla almond milk?
No. If you only have unsweetened almond milk, you may use that along with 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract to achieve the same result. I have not used any other type of plant based milk with this recipe as I generally only buy almond milk, however typically any plant based milk is interchangeable.
Pancake toppings
My favorite topping for pancakes and waffles has to be fresh fruit! Strawberries and raspberries being among the top choices. Here are a few other topping ideas
- Fresh Strawberries
- Fresh raspberries
- Fresh blueberries
- Fresh blackberries
- Fresh peaches
- Fruit compote
- Pure maple syrup
- Any fruit jam or fruit syrup
- chocolate chips (for the chocolate lover in the house)
CAN I FREEZE PANCAKES?
Yes you can! Once the pancakes are cooled, layer each pancake between parchment paper, and place in a freezer zip lock bag. When you are ready to enjoy, simply remove from freezer and pop them into a toaster. no thawing required.
Banana Oatmeal Pancakes
Prep Time 5 min |
Cook time 10 min |
Yield 9 Pancakes
INGREDIENTS
- 2 very ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Olive oil for cooking
DIRECTIONS
- Add All ingredients to a blender and blend on high until smooth. about 45 seconds.
- lightly coat a griddle or non stick frying pan with olive oil, and turn heat on medium once the pan and oil is hot, add 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake. cook for 3-4 minutes until pancakes slightly puff up and you see bubbles in the batter.
- Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown. approx. 1 more minute.
- Wipe griddle or pan clean, and repeat with more oil and remaining batter.
Recipe Notes
- If you notice the pancakes are browning too quickly, lower your heat. I usually start the first couple pancakes on medium and then decrease the heat to low so the pancakes don’t burn.
- If your griddle or pan starts to smoke, it means your pan is too hot. Decreasing the temperature will resolve it.
- Makes 9 pancakes, which is enough for 3 people.
