These banana oat pancakes are only 3 ingredients! They are simple, healthy and delicious and are a great flour-free, high fibre breakfast that is great for both kids and adults. Try topping them with some natural peanut butter and sliced banana.
In a medium bowl mash the banana with a fork until smooth.
Add the eggs and whisk until smooth.
Add the oats and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to thicken. If the mixture is too runny, add more oats.
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. If you are not using a non-stick pan add some oil and spread evenly around the pan.
The mixture will make 4 pancakes, about 1/3 cup batter for each pancake. Add the 1/3 cup of a cup of the mixture to the frying pan until all the mixture is used up. Let the pancake mixture cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, and then flip to cook for an additional 2 minutes. The pancakes should be nice and golden.
Remove the pancakes from the frying pan, and plate to 2 pancakes per plate. Top with desired toppings. They are also good cold!
