Yes, if you ever meet me you'll quickly discover I simply love pancakes. I can have pancakes for breakfast, lunch, or dinner (& all of the above in the same day); Hungry Jack & Aunt Jimima are my best friends.
Lately, I have discovered a new recipe to pancakes that is JUST as simple, MORE filling, and fills my pancake desires.
The recipe includes:
-1 Cup Oats (I used quick oats)
-2 Eggs (or 1.5 eggs)
-Teaspoon cocoa powder or dark chocolate chips
-1 Banana
-1 spoon baking soda
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For syrup, I used honey! I also cheated and used a tablespoon of corn syrup hehe
I mashed the banana and blended the ingredients together & fried them. I got 2 and was incredibly full afterwards. I am still feeling full right now.
Hope this helps anyone who also has a pancake addiction who wants to opt for a healthier option! I like this recipe because it is incredibly simple and I made these with the same amount of time if I were to use flour & sugar.

I love pancakes. I like Arrowhead Mills sprouted grain pancake mix. I don't like chocolate in my pancakes, though I do sometimes add oats or nuts. I top them with peanut butter and maple syrup.0

Your recipe is almost EXACTLY how I make my pancakes too! I've tried making lots of other recipes with coconut flour (does not work at all!) and Almond meal, but none have the same consistency and end up sticking to the pan. I also sometimes add a TBSP pf Greek Yoghurt and Chia seeds.
Have you tried any with coconut flour? I have a whole packet to use, and have failed miserably at making pancakes every flipping (excuse the pun) time.0 -
bump - have to try htis0

Thanks everyone for replying!
Actually, this is my first time deviating from the regular pancake/flour mix and was extremely successful! I heard of using coconut flour, however I never sought out the product in stores. Although I haven't tried it, it would sound fun and delicious is other baked goods.
I like the oats because it's nearly available anywhere and is extremely versatile!
Why do you add yogurt? Does it change the consistency?
I forgot to add my Chia seeds, but I may make it again tomorrow!0 -
Pancake mixes make me sad.

You'll never eat a box pancake again after this.0 -
