Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Using a food processor, process the oats to a flour-like consistency. Mix oats and baking powder in a small bowl and set aside.
-
In a separate bowl, mix eggs, milk, mashed banana, and vanilla. Add to dry ingredients, and mix until just combined. Then fold in pecans.
-
Heat oil in nonstick skillet over medium heat. Drop 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet to make each pancake. Cook until lightly brown on both sides.

They're like gourmet and worth it!
The review about it being like bread...thank you for another great idea of how to use them- thinking as a bread with lunch or dinner. LOVE THESE.

I'll probably add a dash of cinnamon to liven it up just a bit, as I like cinnamon on my oatmeal.

so easy to make and worth it, didn't change any thing, the aroma will wake any one up to a nice breakfast and looks like a regular pancake but better for you. This is my new way of making my pancake for the rest of my life. Eating healthy and enjoying it. - Thanks!
Not recommended
As a pancake: 3/10 Some people are just happy with a circle shape and are like, "if you like pancakes." No. Consistency, the way it cooks/texture, density (heavy, lack of air), absorbency.......this is pseudo (quick) oat bread fried in the shape of a circle not a pancake.
I've made these 3 times now, and will not again because I don't see the point. Why not eat the individual ingredients? Usually the point of mixing something is to play off the flavors against one another and involves nuance, not brute force (I like these individually so lets mix them together and they will go well). Also, the batter is dense. It is more like oatmeal banana bread. Don't expect a pancake experience.
