Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 ripe banana, mashed

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Pinch of salt

Coconut oil or non-stick spray (for cooking)

Fresh banana slices, nuts, and honey for serving

Instructions
 

Blend the Oats: In a blender, add the rolled oats and blend until they reach a fine flour consistency. This will be your oat flour.

    Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the blended oat flour, mashed banana, almond milk, baking powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. This allows the oats to absorb the liquid and thicken slightly.

      Preheat Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with coconut oil or non-stick spray.

        Cook the Pancakes: Using a small ladle or tablespoon, pour a dollop of pancake batter onto the skillet (about 2-3 tablespoons per pancake). Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed.

          Stack and Serve: Once pancakes are cooked, stack them up. You can create mini stacks using 2-3 pancakes per stack. Top with fresh banana slices, a sprinkle of nuts, and drizzle with honey or additional maple syrup for added sweetness.

            Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Mini Banana Oat Pancake Stacks with a side of fresh fruit or yogurt!
