How to make your pancakes
You’re going to need a blender for this recipe so there is absolutely no mess, stress, or bowls involved.
-
Blend 1 1/2 cup oats in the blender until it becomes a thin flour consistency ( the oats will be replacing the flour in this recipe as a healthy gluten free option)
-
Add your banana and a cup of almond milk (or your other milk of choice) and then BLEND! Now you should have a thick pancake like consistency, once you do you're ready to add in toppings.
-
Stir in dark chocolate chips or your toppings of choice
-
Spray a pan with non-stick oil and pour the batter onto the pan
-
Once the pancakes have started to form bubbles that means they are ready to be flipped.
-
Now place them on your plate & add on your toppings and you have yourself DELICIOUS & HEALTHY PANCAKES. Enjoy!
