Peanut Butter, Oat & Banana Pancakes

 

Putting the ‘cake’ into pancakes

 

Ingredients

1 banana

2 tsp vanilla

1/2 mug oats

1 mug plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

4 tbsp peanut butter ( 2 heaped dessert spoons )

1 egg

1/2 mug milk

2/3 tsp vegetable oil

 

 

Method

1. Mash the banana in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the vanilla.
2. Pour in the oats, the flour and the baking powder.
3. Pour 1 tsp oil on your frying pan and begin to heat over a medium heat.
4. Using a whisk, quickly whisk in the peanut butter, egg and milk until it forms a thick batter.
5. You will notice they puff up quickly. This is the chemical reaction with the raising agent.
6. Spoon 2 dollops of mixtures for each pancake and fry on the pan over a low to medium heat. (Remember these are not crepes and need a lower, slower heat to cook through).
7. Allow to cook for about 2/3 minutes on each side. When bubbles appear on the surface flip them over and cook for another 2 / minutes.
8. As you continue to cook these pancakes, keep the cooked ones warm in a low oven and serve as a stack.
9. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve a dollop of peanut butter and Nutella on the side.
10. Enjoy
