Why you’ll love this banana pancake recipe
These pancakes strike the perfect balance between easy and tasty, using simple pantry staples to make a breakfast everyone in your house will love.
- No fuss, no mess: Everything blends in one container, so cleanup is a breeze.
- Naturally sweetened: Ripe bananas add sweetness without needing extra sugar.
- Hearty and filling: Oats make these pancakes more satisfying than traditional versions.
Ingredients
- Old fashioned rolled oats: These form the base of the pancakes, giving them a hearty texture and subtle nutty flavor once blended.
- Bananas: Ripe bananas provide natural sweetness and help bind the batter while keeping the pancakes moist.
- Milk of choice: Use dairy or plant-based milk—both work well to create a smooth, pourable batter.
- Eggs: Eggs add structure and help the pancakes hold together while cooking.
- Vanilla: A splash of vanilla enhances the overall flavor and adds a warm, sweet aroma.
- Baking powder: This gives the pancakes their lift, making them light and fluffy.
- Salt: Just a pinch balances the sweetness and brings out all the flavors.
- Cinnamon: Adds a cozy, slightly spiced note that pairs perfectly with the bananas.
How to make blender banana pancakes
- Add the milk, eggs, bananas, and vanilla to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- Add the oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Blend again until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium low heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of oil.
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look just set.
- Flip and cook for another 30 seconds, or until cooked through.
- Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Tips from my kitchen
- For the best texture and flavor, use very ripe bananas—they blend more easily and add better flavor.
- If your batter seems too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen it slightly.
- When cooking the pancakes, keep the heat on the lower side to prevent the outside from browning too quickly before the inside cooks through.
