Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 0.5 cup mashed ripe banana
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons butter or oil (melted)
- 0 as needed additional butter or oil for greasing
Directions
Step 1
In a blender or food processor, pulse the rolled oats until they are finely ground into flour-like consistency.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the ground oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the milk, mashed ripe banana, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter or oil until smooth and well-combined.
Step 4
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix. Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes to let the oats absorb some of the liquid.
Step 5
If making pancakes, heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 6
If making waffles, preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour an appropriate amount of batter into the waffle iron and cook until crispy and golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 7
Serve the pancakes or waffles warm, optionally topped with fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Perfect for toddlers and the whole family to enjoy!
