Recipe 1: Oat, Apple & Banana Pancakes
A naturally sweet and fluffy pancake recipe with no refined sugar.
Ingredients
-
1 cup rolled oats (120 g)
-
150 ml milk
-
1 apple, grated
-
1 banana, mashed
-
1 egg
-
50 ml water
-
1 tablespoon honey
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
Avocado oil (for cooking)
Instructions
-
Blend or grind half of the rolled oats into oat flour, leaving the remaining oats whole for extra texture.

In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, whole oats, baking powder, and grated apple.
-
Add the mashed banana, egg, milk, water, and honey. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
-
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes so the oats absorb the liquid.

Heat a lightly greased non-stick pan with a little avocado oil over medium-low heat.
-
Spoon the batter into the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
