May 19 Gluten-Free Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes

Pancakes are liiiife! I mean, a lazy Sunday morning with pancakes just seems right, doesn’t it? Well, actually any morning (or afternoon or evening) seems better with pancakes, lets be real.

So, ok, I literally dreamt that I made some gluten-free vegan pancakes, so when I woke up I was super inspired to figure something out. Turns out, I had everything I needed (which isn’t much!), so I threw some ingredients in the food processor and BAM! Let me tell you these are SO GOOD. I mean, the batter is so good, you can just eat it with a spoon (and you can because no eggs!).

I like to cook these with a bit of coconut oil in the skillet to give an extra little crisp to the edges. You can use margarine or butter also to give that yummy pancake/butter flavor combo. Just know that butter will burn a bit faster than coconut oil, so you need to keep an extra eye on them, if you’re cooking them in butter.

Also, one more side note… Since these have no eggs, they can be a bit tricky to flip. I find it’s much easier to flip them if you don’t make them super big. Think small-medium size for these. Enjoy!!

And here is my how-to video, from start to finish…

Gluten-Free Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups gluten free oats (regular oats will work too)
1 ripe banana
2 Tbsp almond butter (any nut/seed butter works)
2 Tbsp maple syrup (could sub honey)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup oat milk (or any milk of your choice)

Directions

In a blender or food processor, combine all the ingredients until there are no large lumps (the batter will have texture from the oats). Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 or 2 tsp coconut oil or butter, and drop in pancakes. I like to use either a 1 Tbsp measure (for small cakes), or a 1/4 cup measure (for medium cakes) to drop the batter into the pan. Once the edges are crisping, carefully flip (about 3 minutes, depending on your stove & pan). You can keep these warm in a low oven until you’re ready to serve.
