Serves: 12 4-inch pancakes
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • A pinch of nutmeg
  • 2 bananas
  • ¼ cup peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter (or cooking spray)
Instructions
  1. Put the oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a blender bowl. Blend until the oats are finely ground. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  2. Now add the bananas, peanut butter, egg, milk and honey to the blender bowl. Blend until smooth, scraping off the sides (the peanut butter has a tendency to stick the sides). Add the wet mixture to the flour mixture, and mix until just combined. Some lumps are OK. (Over mixing leads to dense, chewy pancakes).
  3. Heat a griddle or non-stick pan. Brush lightly with butter (or use cooking spray). Spoon your batter leaving about 2 inches between pancakes.  I use a ¼ cup measure. Cook on medium-low for about 3-4 minutes, when the bubbles start to form on top, and the edges are dry. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 4 minutes.
  4. Serve with some sliced bananas and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey. Enjoy.
Notes
I like to warm my oven to 200 degrees F to keep the pancakes warm as I cook off the whole batch.  I also doubled the batch the last time I made them to reheat for a quick breakfast during the week. My husband loved them!
