Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 cooking pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cups whole wheat oatmeal (150 g)
  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1 free-range egg
  • ¾ cup semi-skimmed milk (200 ml)
  • 2 Tbsp natural peanut butter
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Batter: In a large bowl, use a fork to thoroughly mash the 3 bananas until they have a smooth, creamy consistency. Add the 1 egg and 200 ml of semi-skimmed milk and whisk until just combined.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: Add the 150 g of whole wheat oatmeal, 2 tbsp of peanut butter, 1 tsp of ground cinnamon, and 1 ½ tsp of baking powder to the wet mixture.
  • Combine & Rest (Crucial Tip!): Mix everything together until just combined. The batter will be thick and slightly lumpy. Let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes. This resting period allows the oatmeal to soak up the moisture, resulting in a much better, less grainy pancake texture.
  • Heat the Pan: Heat a large non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add about ½ to 1 tbsp of avocado oil to coat the cooking surface.
  • Cook & Flip: Pour the batter (1/4 cup portions) onto the hot pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges begin to firm up and small bubbles appear on the surface. Flip gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown on both sides.
  • Serve: Continue cooking the remaining batter, adding more oil as necessary between batches. Serve warm!
