Banana Oat Pancakes – My Bizzy Kitchen

I started to do a meal plan over the weekend and was looking through sale flyers, but realized I still had plenty of food in my fridge/freezer and pantry that I didn’t need to buy anything but fresh fruit.

I spent $6.68 cents on groceries this week.  I bought bananas for Hannah but they were already too ripe for her to eat – she can’t eat them if there is the tiniest bit of brown on them.  Even though the stems were green, nope – she wasn’t going to eat them.

So expect a lot of banana recipes!

These pancakes are dense, not fluffy like buttermilk pancakes, but delicious.  After I made them and found that I got 9 pancakes out of the recipe, I put the recipe into the recipe builder, and each one is 1 point each no matter how many you eat.

Believe me – two are plenty!

I used my stick blender to mix up the wet ingredients.  Even though these aren’t fluffy pancakes, I still let the baking powder do its magic and let the batter sit 15 minutes before making the pancakes.  I used 1/3 cup measuring cup for each pancake.

Notes

These are dense and thick pancakes, so they take a bit longer to cook.  On #teampurple and #teamblue each pancake is 1 point, on #teamgreen they are 3 points each.

I served mine with greek yogurt and fruit in the middle.  I ate breakfast at 9:30 yesterday and didn’t eat lunch until after 3 – super filling!

Let me know if you make them.  Happy Tuesday friends, make it a great day!
