Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana , with spots on the skin
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a high-speed blender, add the peeled banana, eggs, oats, baking powder, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  2. Grease a large skillet over medium-high heat. When a drop of water instantly sizzles when it hits the pan, you'll know it's ready to cook the pancakes.
  3. Pour a scant ¼ cup pancake batter into the center of the greased pan. Let it cook until bubbles form in the center, about 2 to 3 minutes. Then slide a spatula under the pancake and flip it over to cook the other side. It should take roughly 1 to 2 more minutes to puff up, letting you know it's done.
  4. Repeat with the remaining batter, making roughly 5 pancakes. Serve warm with your favorite toppings. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

  • Nutrition information is for the entire batch. This information is automatically calculated and is just an estimate, not a guarantee.
  • Make it Paleo: Omit the oats and replace them with 2 ½ tablespoons of coconut flour or ¼ cup almond butter. (Or try ¾ cup almond flour.) In this case, you don't need to use a blender for mixing; just mash the banana with a fork in a mixing bowl and then add the rest of the ingredients into the bowl.

  • ¼ cup
  • ¾ cup
  • For a flatter pancake, you can omit any optional thickeners and just use the banana and egg combo. They will have a thin, crepe-like texture in that case.
  • Update Note: This recipe was updated in April 2024 to use oats as the thickener. The texture is so much better, I just had to share! You can find the original recipe here if you prefer.
