I love the bits of oats throughout these pancakes and the sweet delicate banana flavoring. They are fluffy on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside.

A simple drizzle of maple syrup, a pat of butter and sliced bananas is how I like to top my stack of pancakes! These pancakes make the best breakfast or brunch!

INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE BANANA OATMEAL PANCAKES

  • Oats
  • Cinnamon
  • Baking powder
  • Baking soda
  • Milk
  • Banana
  • Honey
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla extract
  • Melted butter

HOW TO MAKE BANANA OATMEAL PANCAKES

  1. In a large mixing bowl combine oats, oat flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk until combined.
  2. In a small bowl, mash the banana with a fork until almost smooth. Whisk in the milk, melted honey, eggs, vanilla extract and melted butter until blended together.
  3. Pour the banana mixture into the oat mixture and stir until combined- do not overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy and thick.
  4. Bring a griddle or frying pan to medium heat. Once hot, grease your pan with melted butter, coconut oil, or non stick cooking spray. Drop the batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto the griddle, spacing the pancakes about 2 inches apart.
  5. Allow the pancakes to cook for about 2 minutes or until you notice small bubbles forming in the batter. Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and allow them cook for about 1-2 minutes more. Repeat until you are out of batter and be sure to liberally grease the grilled after every batch. Transfer the pancakes a cooling rack or platter and cover with foil. Enjoy!

RECIPE TIPS

  • If you prefer your pancakes to be ultra smooth, put all of the ingredients in a blender. You could also use 2 cups of oat flour instead of 1 cup of oats and 1 cup of oat flour.
  •  
  • Some other toppings you could add to these pancakes are chocolate chips, peanut butter, almond butter, shredded coconut, fresh berries, honey and sprinkles (fun for a celebration!).
  •  
  • Make these into MINI pancakes- my favorite! Instead of using 1/4 cupfuls, use 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake. These are so cute for kids!

FREEZER FRIENDLY PANCAKES

These pancakes can be frozen for up to 3 months. They store best after they are completely cooled. Place a sheet of parchment or wax paper between each pancakein an airtight container or you can put them in a zip-lock bag. These pancakes can freeze for up to 6 weeks. To reheat the pancakes,  heat them in the oven or microwave.

    My kids love pancakes for breakfast, but I’m always on the hunt for healthier versions that won’t lead to a huge energy crash an hour later. Who’s got time for that, right?!? Love that these are so full of whole grains and fruit … and are even freezable for busy mornings!
