I don’t know about you, but sometimes food goes down a lot better when it seems like a ‘treat’! These healthy banana oat pancakes are a real ‘treat’ - but nutritionally they’re good for you too, so it’s a win-win! Banana pancakes were always a weekend treat in our house, so I wanted to combine that ‘special’ breakfast feeling with something healthy and full of goodness that you really can enjoy everyday.

Featuring oats for slow release energy as well as protein from egg and the natural sweetness of banana, these pancakes really will set you up for the day! Enjoy with a big dollop of Greek yoghurt on the side, and some fresh berries (we might take it back up to ‘treat’ territory with a drizzle of maple syrup on top!)

2 ripe bananas
120 g oats
2 eggs
100 g greek yoghurt

Tips

This is the perfect recipe to take advantage of very ripe bananas. The browner the banana, the sweeter the taste will be.

If you don’t have a mixer or a blender, you can also use a fork to mash the bananas in a bowl and mix the the batter.

Add all the ingredients (bananas, quick oats, eggs, yoghurt, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder) in a mixer and mix them until everything is well combined.

Once you have a smooth mixture, set aside and prepare a non-stick pan.

Place a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little bit of butter.

Using a ladle, pour the batter into the pan forming a round shaped pancake.

Cook until the batter starts to form small bubbles and you can easily get under the pancake using a spatula.

Flip the pancake and cook for a couple more minutes or until it’s cooked through.

Repeat the above steps with the rest of your batter and serve with your favourite toppings.
