"Hearty" Oatmeal Pancakes



Quilt-free pancakes! After a few tweaks, this recipe is ready for any healthy diet and they are vegan! No flour - no eggs - no oil! I could eat these everyday.

In a blender combine the following ingredients.

1 Ripe Banana
2 cups Oatmeal
1 1/2 Cups liquid - I use a combination of water and soy milk. Adjust liquid as necessary.
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1-2 TBS Sweetener of your choice - sugar, honey, agave....
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1 TBS Flaxseed meal (optional)


Blend everything until smooth. Pour right from blender pitcher onto hot greased griddle. At this point you can toss on some blueberries* and then cook till edges bubble and bottoms are brown then flip.

They are moist and sweet and do not require syrup. just top with fresh fruit - berries and sliced banana are good choices. Leftover pancakes can be frozen or just stored in the refrigerator. This morning I warmed up a couple of them and spread with peanut butter and filled with long slices of banana. Made a great breakfast sandwich.
