Description

These Healthy Quick Easy Banana Oatmeal Pancakes are a nutritious and delicious breakfast option made with ripe bananas, rolled oats, and eggs. Naturally sweetened and packed with fiber, they’re perfect for a quick morning meal that anyone can enjoy. Customize with your favorite mix-ins and toppings for added flavor and texture.

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Optional

  • 1 cup milk or dairy-free alternative
  • Mix-ins and toppings such as cinnamon, berries, nuts, etc.

Instructions

  1. Soak oats: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats with 1 cup of milk or your preferred dairy-free alternative. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the oats to soften, making the batter easier to blend and creating a fluffier texture.
  2. Mash bananas: While the oats soak, mash the ripe bananas in a separate bowl until smooth and free of large lumps to ensure even distribution throughout the batter.
  3. Combine ingredients: Add the mashed bananas, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the soaked oats. Mix everything thoroughly until the batter is well combined and uniform in texture.
  4. Preheat skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of oil if necessary to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface, indicating the pancakes are ready to flip. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve: Remove pancakes from the skillet and serve warm with your choice of toppings like fresh berries, nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute rolled oats with gluten-free oats for a gluten-free version.
  • Adjust the consistency of the batter by adding more milk if it’s too thick.
  • For added protein and flavor, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or nut butter into the batter.
  • Cook pancakes on medium heat to prevent burning while ensuring they cook through properly.
  • These pancakes can be frozen and reheated for quick breakfasts later in the week.
