Healthy Banana Pancakes
These healthy banana pancakes are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. Naturally sweetened and fluffy, they provide a great protein boost while being easy to make and gluten-free!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup oats
- Mix-ins and toppings of your choice (e.g., vanilla, cinnamon, berries, nuts)
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet over low heat. This ensures your pancakes cook evenly without burning.
- In a blender, combine the bananas, eggs, and oats. Blend on low until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable.
- Lightly grease your skillet with cooking spray, oil, or butter. Pour about 1/6 of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake to keep them small and easy to flip.
- Cook the pancakes on one side until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges begin to set (about 2-3 minutes).
- If using mix-ins like nuts or berries, sprinkle them onto the uncooked side of the pancake now and press gently into the batter.
- Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown on the bottom.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, nut butter, or fresh fruit.
