When you’re short on time but still want something nutritious, satisfying, and incredibly easy to make, these 3-ingredient banana oat pancakes are a true game-changer. They’re flourless, naturally sweetened, and gluten-free, making them the perfect healthy breakfast recipe for kids, adults, or anyone on the go.
And the best part? You probably already have the ingredients in your kitchen right now.
Ingredients (Serves 1–2)
- 1 ripe banana (medium to large, the riper the better for sweetness)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup rolled oats (or quick oats for smoother texture)
(That’s it—just 3 wholesome ingredients!)
Instructions
Step 1: Mash and Mix
- In a medium bowl, peel and mash the banana until smooth and creamy.
- Crack in the eggs and whisk until fully combined.
- Stir in the oats. If you prefer a smoother batter, you can blend everything in a blender for 30 seconds.
Step 2: Cook the Pancakes
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a touch of oil or butter.
- Pour small rounds of batter (about 2–3 tbsp each) into the pan.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and set in the middle.
Step 3: Serve and Enjoy
- Stack pancakes on a plate, drizzle with a little honey or maple syrup (optional), and top with fresh fruit, nuts, or yogurt if you like.
- Enjoy immediately while warm and fluffy.
Why This Recipe Works
- Banana: Adds natural sweetness and potassium.
- Eggs: Provide protein and help bind the pancakes.
