Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Non-stick skillet
- Spatula
Ingredients
Pancake Batter
- 1 cup rolled oats Acts as the primary structure and source of fiber; quick oats yield a smoother batter.
Optional Mix-ins or Toppings
- cinnamon A sprinkle adds warmth and depth of flavor to the pancakes.
- chocolate chips For a touch of sweetness that kids will love; feel free to swap with nuts or dried fruits.
- maple syrup Drizzle over pancakes for a classic sweet finish; honey or yogurt also make great alternatives.
Instructions
Preparation
- Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth, creating a creamy base that will add natural sweetness to your pancakes.
- Combine the mashed bananas with the rolled oats and eggs. Stir until a batter-like consistency forms, blending for smoothness or mixing by hand for a more textured bite.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly greasing it. This step ensures the pancakes won’t stick and develops that lovely golden crust.
- Pour 2-3 tablespoons of the batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form and the edges set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, approximately 1-2 minutes more.
- Stack your fluffy pancakes and top them with your favorite additions like syrup, fresh berries, or nut butter for a delightful finishing touch.
Notes
Optional: Sprinkle with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. Allow leftovers to cool completely before freezing them to prevent sticking together.
