Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare bananas – In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth with minimal lumps remaining
- Step 2: Mix dry ingredients – In another bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, and cinnamon thoroughly
- Step 3: Combine wet ingredients – Mix eggs and milk into the mashed bananas until fully combined and smooth
- Step 4: Create batter – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined
- Step 5: Heat skillet – Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter
- Step 6: Cook pancakes – Pour about half a cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on top (2-3 minutes)
- Step 7: Flip and finish – Flip carefully and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for maximum sweetness and easier mashing
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to allow oats to absorb moisture and soften
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while preparing the remaining batches
- Don’t overmix the batter as this can result in tough, dense pancakes instead of fluffy ones
