Made with just a few simple ingredients, these gluten free vegan banana oat blender pancakes are ready in minutes. A nutrient-packed breakfast for those busy mornings!
I’m not the mom that makes a gourmet breakfast for my kids before they go to school. I got no shame in admitting that. It’s a bowl of cereal, scrambled eggs, breakfast bar or a bagel. If they are lucky, there might be some leftover muffins that I made the day before. With four kids to get ready, it’s gotta be quick and easy.
I usually save those big homemade breakfast spreads for the weekends. My kids usually request pancakes with hash browns and bacon on the side. I always serve it with some fresh fruit too. A good hearty breakfast really is so comforting and brings the family together. I even like to serve breakfast for dinner on a weeknight. Do you ever do that too? My kids think breakfast for dinner is the coolest and I’ll take all the mom points I can get!
I really wish my kids loved a warm bowl of oatmeal in the morning for breakfast as much as my husband and I do. Oatmeal with berries, almond butter and a little coconut sugar. So satisfying. My kids would just rather have a bowl of boring cereal. If I can’t get them to eat oatmeal, I’ll just make pancakes loaded with oats!
I’m so excited to share this recipe for gluten free vegan banana oat blender pancakes with you guys. They are made with Bob’s Red Mill gluten free rolled oats, as well as Bob’s Red Mill golden flaxseed meal. Both ingredients are PACKED with nutrients, including omega-3’s and fiber. So great for starting your day. I also use ripe bananas to help bind these allergen-free pancakes, along with a few extra ingredients you probably already have on hand.
You are not going to get over how easy these banana oat blender pancakes are to make. You just dump all the ingredients into a blender, blend until smooth, pour onto a hot griddle and cook until golden brown. Easiest. Pancakes. Ever. I just love the simplicity of the ingredients as well. Nutritious, refined sugar free, packed with flavor and great for making ahead.
My favorite way to eat these hearty pancakes is with a good drizzle of warm nut butter {peanut butter is my go-to} and a few sliced bananas. They are also pretty tasty with a little maple syrup. I will say, these are not a fluffy pancake, but more of a thinner pancake. I love the texture and couldn’t stop eating them when they came off the griddle.
Go ahead. Be the cool parent and make these easy-peasy gluten free vegan banana oat blender pancakes for dinner this week. Breakfast for dinner is always a good idea!
