Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium bananas, ripe
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup milk

Method
 

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend on high until completely smooth.
  2. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow oats to soften and batter to thicken.
  3. Heat a griddle or skillet to medium heat and grease with cooking spray, oil, or butter.
  4. Scoop ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form.
  5. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown, adjusting heat if needed.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter, re-greasing the pan as needed between batches.

Notes

– Use very ripe bananas (lots of brown spots) for maximum sweetness and moisture.
– Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes to allow the oats to soften and thicken the batter.
– Adjust the heat of your griddle carefully; too high will burn the outside before the inside cooks.
