Print Recipe

Easy, wholesome banana oat pancakes made with just four ingredients—no flour or sugar needed. Perfect for quick breakfasts or cozy weekends.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  1. Place 1 cup (90g) of rolled oats into a blender or food processor. Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until finely ground into a flour-like powder. Set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash 2 medium ripe bananas with a fork until smooth with a few small lumps remaining.
  3. Crack 2 large eggs (room temperature) into the mashed bananas and whisk until fully blended.
  4. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon baking powder over the oat flour and stir quickly. Gradually add the oat flour and baking powder mixture into the banana-egg batter. Stir gently just until combined; do not overmix. If batter is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons water or plant-based milk to loosen.
  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Test readiness by sprinkling a few drops of water; if they sizzle and evaporate quickly, the pan is ready.
  6. Lightly grease the pan with oil or butter. Using a 1/4 cup (60ml) measuring cup, pour batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form and edges look set, then flip carefully.
  7. Cook the other side for another 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while cooking the rest. Serve warm.

Notes

Use ripe bananas with brown spots for natural sweetness and softness. Blend oats finely for best texture. Do not overmix batter to keep pancakes tender. Use medium heat and a non-stick pan to prevent sticking. Let batter rest 5 minutes if possible. Flip pancakes only once when bubbles form and edges set. For vegan version, replace eggs with flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg).
