Servings: 3 servings
Ingredients
- 1 large very ripe banana (brown and spotty!)
- 1.5 cups rolled oats (be sure to use certified gluten-free oats if needed)
- 1 cup non-dairy milk of choice, + 2 tbsp
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp ground flax seeds
Instructions
- Add rolled oats to blender and blend until a fine flour forms. Sift through a sieve to get rid of any chunks. The finer the better! Add to a large mixing bowl. If using baking powder and ground flax, add that to the bowl and whisk.
- Add your ripe banana, non-dairy milk and vanilla + maple syrup (if using) to the blender and blend on high until completely smooth.
- Pour your blended ingredients into the bowl and mix with a spatula until incorporated and smooth. You’ll want to work quickly as the batter tends to thicken up as it sits.
- Heat the pan, and test with a little batter (it should sizzle) before cooking pancakes. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan, spread with the back of a spoon to form a circle and thin out the batter. When bubbles form on the top of the pancake surface and edges start to cook, flip pancake and cook for an additional minute or so.
