Make these simple, fluffy banana pancakes using just three ingredients. This quick recipe is perfect for busy mornings and uses ripe bananas for natural sweetness and flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large very ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (quick or old-fashioned)
  • Cooking spray or butter for the griddle

Instructions

  1. Place the ripe bananas, eggs, and rolled oats into a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend the mixture until it is completely smooth. You should not see large chunks of oats or banana. This step is key for fluffy texture.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray or butter.
  4. Pour batter onto the hot griddle to form pancakes, using about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake.
  5. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. The edges will look set before you flip.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas; the browner the peel, the sweeter the pancake.
  • If you do not have a blender, mash the bananas very well with a fork, then whisk in the eggs and oats until just combined. The texture will be slightly less uniform but still good.
  • For a thicker pancake, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking so the oats can absorb some moisture.
  • These banana pancakes freeze well. Cool completely, then stack with parchment paper between layers and store in a freezer bag for up to one month.
