These four ingredient pancakes are a breeze to make. Plus, they have no added sugar or fat (except for the oil in which to cook them!) and they are are loaded with calcium, fiber, and potassium.
Ingredients
1 cup whole oats
1 cup coconut milk
1 egg
1 banana
Grapeseed oil for cooking
Directions
Blend all four ingredients in blender. Let sit one minute. Meanwhile, heat grapeseed oil in large skillet on low-medium heat. You may test the readiness of the oil by flicking a drop of water into the skillet. If it sizzles then the oil is ready for the pancake batter. Pour batter into skillet to form 3-4 pancakes. Use a spatula to turn pancakes once small holes form on top of the pancakes. Cook for another minute and remove from skillet. Makes one dozen pancakes.
