Instructions for the eggless banana pancakes

  • Mash the banana in a bowl with a fork until it becomes a puree.

    Add the oat flour (I use the flavored kind so no sugar or sweeteners are needed). Add the cinnamon and pinch of salt, mixing well with a whisk.

    Alternatively, you can use all-purpose flour and a tablespoon of sugar.

    Now add the baking powder and slowly pour in the milk. The mixture should be thick but slightly runny.

    Heat a non-stick pan on the stove. Once hot, pour in a ladle of the mixture and cook for a few minutes.

    Flip with a spatula and cook the other side as well.

    Our pancakes are ready!

Tips and Storage

If you plan to use plain oat flour or all-purpose flour, I recommend adding a tablespoon of sugar or a few drops of sweetener.

You can replace oat milk with any plant-based milk, almond milk is also excellent.

Pancakes can be made in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge or even in the freezer.

You can serve them with classic maple syrup or with a delicious almond butter.
