Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
For Cooking
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare Oat Flour: Place the rolled oats in a blender or food processor and blend until they reach a fine flour-like consistency.
- Make the Batter: To the oat flour, add the ripe bananas, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Blend all ingredients until the batter is smooth and evenly combined.
- Heat Skillet: Warm a lightly greased skillet or frying pan over medium heat to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove pancakes from the skillet and serve warm. Enhance with your choice of toppings such as yogurt, honey, or fresh fruit for extra flavor and nutrition.
Notes
- The batter will thicken as it sits; if it becomes too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen it.
- These pancakes freeze well—cool completely before freezing and reheat in a toaster or oven for best results.
