Make these incredibly simple and fluffy banana oatmeal pancakes using just three ingredients in your blender. This recipe offers a healthy breakfast packed with fiber and natural sweetness, perfect for quick mornings or weekend brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large ripe bananas
  • 1 cup rolled oats (use certified gluten-free if needed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: Pinch of cinnamon
  • For cooking: Coconut oil or butter

Instructions

  1. Place the rolled oats into a high-speed blender. Pulse until the oats resemble a coarse flour consistency.
  2. Add the ripe bananas, eggs, and any optional flavorings (vanilla or cinnamon) to the blender.
  3. Blend on medium-high speed until the mixture is completely smooth. Do not over-blend once smooth.
  4. Stop the blender and let the batter rest for 5 to 10 minutes. This step allows the oats to absorb moisture, which is key for fluffy pancakes.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with coconut oil or butter.
  6. Pour batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes (about 1/4 cup per pancake).
  7. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and set in the center. You will see bubbles form on the surface before flipping.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and texture.
  • For a thicker, higher-protein version, substitute 1/4 cup of the oats with cottage cheese or Greek yogurt.
  • If your batter seems too thick after resting, add a tablespoon of water or milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  • These are excellent for meal prepping; store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
