Ingredients
  

  • For the Pancakes Makes about 6-8 small pancakes:
  • 1 ripe banana mashed
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup milk dairy or plant-based

Instructions
 

  • Blend the Batter: In a blender or food processor, combine the rolled oats, mashed banana, baking powder, milk, canola oil, and a pinch of salt (if using). Blend until smooth, about 30-45 seconds. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk.
  • Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of canola oil or cooking spray.
  • Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Garnish and Serve: Stack the pancakes on a plate. Top with sliced strawberries and blackberries for a pop of color and flavor. Finish with a generous drizzle of honey for a touch of sweetness.
  • Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy the perfect balance of hearty oats, sweet banana, and fresh berries
