This is a recipe that I borrowed from my daughter. She has been making it for herself so she doesn’t have to eat my pancakes. Then I realized it is actually good. The pancakes are very simple but nutritious and delicious. Basic ingredients are oatmeal, eggs, bananas … oatmeal, eggs, bananas … oatmeal, eggs, bananas … that is it and just add a few things to make it taste better. Of course, this is a very kid friendly recipe.
Dairy free and gluten free with the substitution of gluten-free oats.
RECIPE
Serving: generous portion for 1 adult
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup of old fashioned oatmeal, coarsely ground (use gluten-free for gluten free version)
- 1 1/2 crushed ripe bananas
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon or apple spice
- pinch of salt
- lemon zest (optional)
- oil for baking
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- syrup of your choice
- fruits (optional)
Preparation
1. Lightly beat the eggs in a medium sized bowl.
2. Mash the banana and add to the bowl.
3. Add 1/2 cup of oatmeal to a blender and blend until you get a coarse flour consistency. Add to the bowl.
4. Add baking soda, cinnamon, lemon zest, salt. Mix.
5. Just like any other grains, I like to let the mixture soak for an hours. However, it can be baked right away.
6. Bake in a preheated oiled pan on medium low heat on both sides for 3-4 minutes. Flip over and bake for a few minutes. Both sides should be nice and golden brown in color.
7. You can add fruits on top of the pancakes while baking in the pan.
8. Serve with fruits, nuts and syrup.
enjoy!
