Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • ½ cup oats
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup raw spinach
  • 3 tablespoon water
  • coconut or avocado oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Make the batter. Combine all ingredients (except the oil) in a blender and mix until smooth.
  • Make the pancakes. Preheat a skillet to medium heat and add a little coconut or avocado oil. Take a tablespoon of batter and portion out 4 pancakes across the skillet and let them cook for about 3 minutes until the sides are golden and have firmed and you can easily flip them.
  • Flip them (they should flip super easily) and cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Serve. Then add some toppings as you like them – we love adding hazelnut butter and forest fruits but even plain they are a great snack for any time of day.

Notes

  • Age - from 6 month old +

  • Make it vegan by using chia egg or flax egg (1 tablespoon of chia/flax soaked 3 tablespoon of water for 15 minutes)
