Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time20 minutes
Servings11 -12 pancakes

Ingredients  

  • 7 oz ripe bananas sliced (200 g)
  • 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats 200 g
  • 1 and 1/2 cups almond milk
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Instructions 

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Heat a skillet or a frying pan over low heat and grease the pan with coconut oil.
  4. 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.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings or make a batch and freeze them! 

Notes
