Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (1 for batter, 1 for topping)
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup milk
- 2 cups mixed berries, thawed
- ¼ cup maple syrup
From your pantry: 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cinnamon, 2 tbsp butter, pinch of salt.
Instructions
- Blend the oats in a blender until floury. Add the bananas, 1 cup yogurt, the eggs, milk, vanilla and sugar and blend until smooth.
- Pulse in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt just until combined. Let the batter rest 5 minutes to thicken.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low and brush with a little butter. Pour ¼-cup portions and cook until bubbles form on top and the edges look dry, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip and cook until golden and springy in the center, 1 to 2 minutes more. Keep warm in a 200°F oven while you finish the batch.
- Serve stacked with a dollop of the remaining yogurt, the berries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Tip: Cook these a notch lower than regular pancakes. The banana and yogurt brown fast, so medium-low lets the centers cook through before the outsides darken.
