Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large ripe banana (about 1/2 cup mashed, the spottier the better for sweetness)
- 2/3 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned, not instant for best texture)
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Mash or blend banana: Add peeled ripe banana to blender. Pulse until smooth, scraping sides as needed.
- Add oats and eggs: Pour in rolled oats and crack in 2 eggs. Blend 20-30 seconds until batter is creamy and no oat chunks remain. Avoid overblending to keep fluffiness.
- Rest batter: Let sit 5 minutes. Oats absorb liquid for thicker, taller pancakes.
- Heat pan: Warm nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease with oil or butter.
- Cook pancakes: Scoop 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook 2-3 minutes until edges set and bubbles form on top. Flip gently; cook 1-2 more minutes until golden.
- Serve warm: Stack and top immediately. Makes 6 pancakes.
Notes
Pro Tip: Medium-low heat prevents burning while ensuring even cooking. If batter thickens too much, stir in 1 tsp milk.
Storage: Fridge 3-5 days airtight. Freeze 3 months with parchment layers. Reheat in toaster.
