Ingredients

• 2 pieces ripe bananas
• 1.5 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup milk
• 2 pieces eggs
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil or butter

Directions

Step 1

Peel the bananas and place them in a large mixing bowl. Mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.

Step 2

Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and whisk together until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 4

Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and stir gently until just combined. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes to thicken.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking oil or butter.

Step 6

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the pan. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circle if needed.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges start to look set.

Step 8

Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the pan as necessary.

Step 10

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
