Saturday Morning Pancakes

Don’t these look delicious?

IMG_4410Want to know a secret? They’re gluten-free. No flour in them whatsoever. Also, they’re super scrumptious. I ate them as a post-workout breakfast, because of all of the great ingredients in them and have decided that they are going to be an often repeated recipe. So, if you’d like to know how to make these extremely easy and healthy pancakes, read on!

All you’ll need:

2 eggs
1 banana
3 cup of oats (I used steel-cut, but probably any kind will do)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin spice, or any other flavorings that you’d like to add to your pancakes

That’s it. Literally. And do you know what you do with it all? Put it in a blender, mix it up till it’s smooth, and you’ve got your batter. It’s that easy. Let it sit and thicken while your skillet warms up, and then you’re all set to cook your batch of pancakes!

This made about 8 pancakes for me, so if you want more than that, just adjust the recipe accordingly. I added a little bit of butter, brown sugar, and raspberries as a topping, which made it a little less healthy, but a lot more delicious, so should you decide to try some other toppings, let me know how they taste!

Also, the chia seeds are actually optional, but your pancakes end up a lot more nutritional and they also taste better if you put them in~~
