I love pancakes to the moon and back. They’re just so flipping good (yes, that was almost a pun)!

Here’s one of my favourite pancake recipes. Because of the bananas in the batter you don’t need any sweetener, so it’s sugarless! It also happens to be vegan…and it is really low in calories, but don’t worry, what is sacrificed in calories is not traded off for flavour! In my mind, this equals the perfect pancake.

Vegan Banana Oatmeal Pancakes

1 ¼ cup old fashioned oats ½ cup organic whole wheat flour 2 tsp. baking powder ½ tsp. sea salt 1 ½ cups soymilk* 2 ripe bananas

*Or a dairy-free milk – I like using this store bought almond milk or my homemade almond milk

Blend all the ingredients in a blender, except the bananas. Now add the bananas and continue to blend (in blender) until the bananas are smooth. Pour onto a hot griddle (lightly oiled with olive oil or coconut oil) and cook. Once the pancake bubbles on one side, it’s time to flip it to the other. This makes a dozen, medium-sized pancakes, serving 4 people.

I love these pancakes with a little bit of peanut butter with real maple syrup…these pancakes are very fluffy and it tastes like a giant marshmallow AND it’s healthy! Soooo good. Okay, I need to stop drooling on the keyboard.

You know what’s weird though? I do not like waffles…in fact, they are one food I really, really don’t like. Isn’t that strange? It’s not really the taste, it’s the texture of all those little squares…I don’t know…maybe I’ve just never had the perfect waffle.
