Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups rolled oats Ensure they're gluten-free if needed
  • 1 large overripe banana The riper, the better
  • 1 cup milk plus 2 tablespoons, unsweetened almond milk recommended

Equipment

  • Blender or Food Processor
  • Mixing bowl
  • Non-stick skillet or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by adding your rolled oats to a blender or food processor. Blend on high until they become a fine flour.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the overripe banana until smooth. Add the oat flour you just made, along with the milk. Stir until combined.
  3. Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If concerned about sticking, lightly grease it.
  4. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface.
  5. Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
  6. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit or maple syrup.

Notes

  • Let the batter sit for a few minutes for the best texture.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning.
  • Experiment with different milk alternatives for varied flavors.
  • Double the recipe and freeze extras for quick breakfasts!
