No reviews

Quick and easy pancakes made with just ripe bananas, eggs, and oats, perfect for busy mornings or as a light snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas (about 1 cup mashed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats or quick oats
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla, pinch of salt
  • For cooking: butter, coconut oil, or neutral oil

Instructions

  1. Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a bowl until mostly smooth.
  2. Whisk in the eggs until the mixture looks even and glossy.
  3. Stir in the oats. For a smoother texture, blend bananas, eggs, and oats in a blender until just smooth.
  4. Let the batter rest 3–5 minutes so the oats hydrate and thicken slightly.
  5. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes until edges look set and small bubbles form. Flip and cook 1–2 minutes more until golden.
  7. Serve warm with maple syrup, yogurt, nut butter, or fresh fruit.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for the best sweetness and moisture. Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 3–4 days in the fridge or 2–3 months in the freezer.
