🥞 Healthy Oat Pancakes (Flourless!)
🕒 Prep: 5 min | Cook: 10–15 min
🍽️ Makes: 6–8 small pancakes
🌾 Ingredients
-
1 cup rolled oats (or quick oats)
-
1 ripe banana (adds natural sweetness)
-
2 eggs
-
½ tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
-
Pinch of salt
-
¼–½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, adjust for batter thickness)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
🥣 Instructions
1. Blend the batter
Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken slightly (oats will absorb some liquid).
2. Cook pancakes
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with oil or cooking spray.
Pour batter onto the pan (about ¼ cup per pancake). Cook 2–3 minutes on one side, until bubbles form and edges look set. Flip and cook 1–2 more minutes until golden and cooked through.
3. Serve
Top with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, nut butter, or yogurt.
✅ Tips
-
Use a food processor if you don’t have a blender (or oat flour + mashed banana by hand).
-
Add blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter before cooking for a twist.
-
Double the batch and freeze extras for quick breakfasts!
