Ingredients
  

Pancake Ingredients
  • 2 pieces ripe bananas The spottier, the sweeter.
  • 2 pieces eggs Can substitute with flax egg for a vegan option.
  • 1 cup rolled oats Quick oats work too.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Optional, helps pancakes puff up.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Optional but adds great flavor.
  • 1 pinch salt
  • Butter or oil for the pan For cooking.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Add the ripe bananas, eggs, rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to a blender.
  2. Blend until the batter is mostly smooth, leaving a few oat bits.
  3. Let the batter sit for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the oats to soak, thickening the batter.
Cooking
  1. Heat a nonstick pan over medium to medium-low heat and add a little butter or oil.
  2. Pour small circles of batter into the pan, about 3 to 4 inches wide.
  3. Cook until bubbles form and edges look set, around 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for sweeter pancakes. Keep the heat lower to avoid burning. Smaller pancakes are easier to flip and cook more evenly. Let the batter rest before cooking to enhance texture.
