Ingredients:

• 1 cup Organic Quick Rolled Oats (or Bulk Quick Rolled Oats)

  

• 1 large ripe banana (mashed)

• 2 large eggs

• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp baking powder

• 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)

• Pinch of salt

• 2 tbsp chopped hazelnuts

• Maple syrup (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oats:

   • Place the organic quick rolled oats in a blender or food processor and blend until they form a fine oat flour. This step ensures smooth, fluffy pancakes.

2. Mix the Batter:

   • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon (if using), and salt. Set aside.

   • In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

3. Combine Ingredients:

   • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

   • Gently fold in the chopped hazelnuts for a delightful crunch.

4. Cook the Pancakes:

   • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of oil or butter.

   • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

   • Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Stack the pancakes on a plate and drizzle generously with maple syrup. Top with extra banana slices, hazelnuts, or a sprinkle of quick rolled oats for presentation.

Tips for Success:

• For a smoother batter, blend all ingredients together in a high-speed blender instead of mixing by hand.

• If the batter feels too thick, add a splash of almond milk to thin it out.

• Make these pancakes ahead of time and freeze them for a quick, healthy breakfast on busy mornings. Just reheat in a toaster or microwave.
