Banana oat pancakes

Ingredients

  • 125ml oat milk
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 1 small banana
  • 100g rolled oats
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • few drops of vanilla extract
  • oil, we used avocado oil spray
  • low sugar yogurt and fruit to top


Method

STEP 1

Put the oat milk, egg yolks, banana, oats, baking powder and vanilla in a blender and process to as smooth a mixture as you can get. Whisk the eggs whites until they hold stiff peaks. Whisk 1-2 tbsp of the whites into the batter, then fold in the rest.

STEP 2

Heat a non-stick pan over a medium heat and spray with a whisper of oil, pour about 2 tbsp of batter into the pan and cook for 1-2 mins, until the base sets and bubbles appear all over the top. Flip and cook the other side for a minute. Repeat in batches, making sure the top looks dryish before attempting the flip, or the center will collapse.


Prep: 5 mins | Cook: 15 mins | Makes 8, serves 2 |
