Oat Flour Banana Pancakes are light, fluffy, and so easy to make! All you need is a banana, eggs, and oat flour. Add your favorite mix-ins and top these hotcakes with fruit and syrup for extra flavor.
Mix ingredients - In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork. Whisk in egg and add any mix-ins, such as cinnamon or vanilla extract. Whisk in flour until just combined.
Cook pancakes - Heat a griddle or skillet over low-medium heat and spray with cooking spray or wipe with a neutral cooking oil. Use a ladle to add batter to the pan, about ¼ cup per pancake. Use the back of the ladle to gently spread the batter into a circle. Once the batter begins to bubble and the underside turns golden, use a spatula to flip the pancake over and cook until golden. Repeat until all of the batter is used.

Notes
Storage
These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan, but you can refrigerate leftover pancakes in an air-tight container for up to 2 days. To reheat the leftover pancakes, heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick pan or griddle over low heat then warm each side of the pancakes for a minute or two.
Top Tips
Do not over mix the batter or the pancakes will get tough.
Thoroughly mash the banana until it has a smooth consistency so the pancakes also have a smooth consistency.
If you are making a large batch, place the pancakes on a baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven until you cook all of the batter.
Our recipe makes enough pancakes for 1 person, double, triple, or quadruple the recipe if you want to make it for family or friends.
If your pan starts to get hot after a couple rounds of hotcakes, remove the pan from heat so it doesn't burn subsequent batches.
Use a non-stick pan so the pancakes are easy to flip and there is minimal cleanup.
