Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup oats (old fashioned or quick oats)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup chopped unsalted pecans
  • Cooking spray OR butter

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the two types of flour, oats, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  • In a separate bowl, mash the banana with a fork. Add the milk, egg, and vanilla to the mashed banana and stir.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a spoon. (It is fine if the batter is chunky.) Add the blueberries and pecans to the batter and stir.
  • Heat a frying pan or griddle to medium high heat. Spray the pan with cooking spray or coat with butter. Pour the batter onto the hot pan in pancake circles.
  • Heat on one side until tiny bubbles start to form in the pancake (about 3-4 minutes). (If the pancake gets too dark, turn the heat down slightly.) Flip the pancake and cook for 3-4 minutes on the other side. Top with banana slices, a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar, or a drizzle of syrup

Notes

Tip: To keep the pancakes hot while making multiple batches, place them in a heated oven.
