Make that breakfast staple, pancakes, healthier and super easy with these blender pancakes. There is no processed sugar,a hit of protein and lots of flavor to enjoy!
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add a Tablespoon or two of neutral cooking oil, like vegetable oil and allow to heat while you prepare the batter.
In a blender or food processor bowl, pulse the oats and baking powder together until the mixture resembles a coarse flour.
Add the remaining ingredients and mix until combined.
Ladle the pancake batter by the ¼ cupful into the preheated greased pan or griddle.
Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake batter, then gently flip to the other side and cook until the underside of the pancake starts to turn golden brown and the middle is set.
Top with butter & syrup or your favorite toppings, and serve.
Notes
*You can use 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce in place of the bananaIf using mashed banana, be sure to use one that is ripe or super-ripe. It’ll be easier to mash and the sugars will have developed, lending natural sweetness and more banana flavor to the pancakes.For sweeter pancakes, add a Tablespoon of maple syrup or honey to the batter before you blend it.If the batter is too thick, continue adding in milk by the tablespoonful to reach your desired consistency. The batter may also thicken as it sits, while you cook your pancakes. Simply repeat this process with the milk by the tablespoonful to thin the batter out before ladling more into your pan.
