Equipment

  • Stove
  • Food Processor

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 skim milk
  • 1/2 mashed banana
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 TBSP pecans chopped
  • 1 TBSP canola oil

Instructions

  • Using a food processor or blender, add 1 cup of quick-cooking oats and process until they form a flour-like consistency. Mix the oatmeal flour and baking powder in a bowl and set aside.
  • Mash your banana until smooth in a small bowl before adding milk, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well, and then add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients.
  • Heat your canola oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Drop 1/4 cup servings of the pancake batter into the pan and cook until lightly brown and bubbles form along the edges (2-3 minutes). Flip the pancake and repeat the process until the pancake is fully cooked through.
  • Once your pancakes are cooked, top with the chopped pecans, fresh berries, or sugar-free syrup.
