The Banana Oatmeal Pancakes are a wholesome twist on a morning classic, combining the sweetness of ripe bananas with the hearty texture of oats. These fluffy pancakes are perfect for those looking for a gluten-free and nutritious start to their day, without compromising on flavor.
In a blender, add the rolled oats and pulse until it forms a fine oat flour.
Add the milk, ripe banana, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and maple syrup to the blender. Blend until you get a smooth batter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a bit of coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges are set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, additional maple syrup, or nuts.
