KEEP IT SIMPLE

Tools & supplies

STEP BY STEP

Make it

  1. Mash

    Mash banana thoroughly in a bowl.

  2. Mix

    Beat in eggs, then stir in oats and cinnamon.

  3. Cook

    Heat skillet over medium heat; add oil. Spoon small portions, no more than 1/4 cup each, leaving space.

  4. Flip

    Cook 1–3 minutes until golden underneath and set enough to lift. Flip; cook another 1–2 minutes until no wet center remains.

Good to know

  • Keep pancakes small; banana-and-egg batter is more delicate than flour batter.
  • The protein comes from eggs and oats; no nutrition total is promised here.
