Healthy Banana Oatmeal Pancakes are a favourite in our household, especially with my children, who love pancakes. This recipe is both quick and easy to make, and it's a healthier option. The batter includes wholesome ingredients like rolled oats, chia seeds, and ripe bananas, making these pancakes nutritious and delicious. Moreover, they are effortless to prepare, making them the perfect breakfast option for busy mornings.

  • 1cup
    rolled Oats
  • 1tbsp
    Chia Seeds
  • 1
    Banana (ripe)
  • 1
    Egg
  • 1/2cup
    Milk
  • 1tsp
    Vanilla extract
  • 1tsp
    Baking Powder
  • 1/4tsp

  • 1/4tsp
    Nutmeg (optional)
  • 1pinch
    Salt
  • 1tbsp

Method

  1. Grind the rolled oats and chia seeds in a grinder to a fine powder and set aside.

  2. Combine the banana, egg, milk, vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon powder, nutmeg (if using), and salt in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and has a pourable consistency.

  3. Add the ground oat and chia mixture to the blender and pulse until well combined. Transfer the batter to a bowl and set it aside for 5-10 minutes.

  4. Heat a heavy-bottomed pan or skillet on low-medium heat and brush the pan with olive oil.

  5. Using a 1/2 cup measure or a spoon ladle, pour the batter onto the skillet and slightly press down with the ladle to flatten it to a pancake shape.

  6. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side and flip the pancake. Cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side or until golden brown on both sides.

  7. Repeat the process with the remaining batter to make the pancakes.

  8. Serve the pancakes with maple syrup, sliced banana and strawberries on top.

Tips & Tricks

  1. This recipe yields around 4-5 medium-sized pancakes, enough to serve 2 people depending on the size you make.

  2. To prevent the pancakes from burning, cook them over low heat.

  3. You can use almond or oat milk instead of regular milk.

  4. You can use honey instead of maple syrup.
