Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 medium (mashed) ripe bananas
• 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1 whole large egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
• 2 tablespoons (melted) butter or oil
• 1 as needed butter or oil (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a blender or food processor, blend the rolled oats until they resemble a fine flour. This will take about 1 minute. Transfer the oat flour to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Whisk together to combine the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the milk, egg, vanilla extract, maple syrup (or honey), and melted butter (or oil). Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

Step 5

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This allows the oat flour to absorb some of the liquid and yields fluffier pancakes.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or oil.

Step 7

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

Step 8

Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.

Step 10

Serve the pancakes warm with toppings of your choice, such as sliced bananas, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
