How to make this recipe

To a measuring jug, add the bananas, vanilla extract, maple syrup, almond milk, rolled oats, and lemon juice. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth. You can also use a blender or a food processor.

Then add the baking powder and baking soda and gently mix with a spatula. Let the batter sit for 5 to 10 minutes to thicken.

Heat a skillet or a frying pan over low heat and grease the pan with coconut oil.

Once hot, pour a ladle of the batter into the pan and let it cook for about 2 minutes. When bubbles start to appear all over the top, flip it very gently and let it cook for more 2 minutes, then plate. Repeat this process until you have used all the batter.

Serve immediately with your favorite toppings or make a batch and freeze them!
