🧾 Ingredients (for 1–2 servings)

  • 1 ripe banana 🍌 (medium to large β€” adds natural sweetness)

  • 2 eggs πŸ₯š

  • ΒΌ cup rolled oats (or oat flour β€” adds fluffiness and fiber)

Optional (for flavor & texture):

  • Β½ tsp cinnamon

  • Β½ tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of baking powder (for extra fluffiness)

  • Dash of salt


πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

Step 1: Make the Batter

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine the banana, eggs, and oats.

  2. Blend until smooth and creamy (about 20 seconds).

  3. If you prefer chunkier texture, mash the banana with a fork and mix everything by hand in a bowl.

(The batter should be similar to regular pancake batter β€” not too runny.)


Step 2: Cook the Pancakes

  1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease with a few drops of oil or cooking spray.

  2. Pour small circles of batter (about ΒΌ cup each) onto the pan.

  3. Cook for 2–3 minutes on one side, until bubbles form and edges look set.

  4. Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

  • Fresh berries πŸ“
