Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes

These pancakes have become a weekend go-to in my apartment – not only because they taste like banana bread in pancake form, but they also can be made with just a few simple pantry staples, making them extremely easy to make.

The Pantry Staples You’ll Need to Make Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes…

There’s no better feeling than finding a new recipe to make and having everything on hand – and I can guarantee that you most likely have the three main components to this recipe. All you’ll need is…

• Almond milk (or your milk of choice)
• A Banana

The Best Banana Oat Pancake Add-Ins and Toppings

Once you have the base to this recipe, you can really get creative with it! In this specific recipe, I included vanilla for a little extra burst of flavor, but you could also add cacao powder for chocolate pancakes, cinnamon, peanut butter powder, your favorite flavor extracts, or whatever you like.

And of course, there’s TOPPINGS! In my opinion, pancakes aren’t even pancakes without chocolate chips (anyone agree?), but here are some of other favorite toppings as well…

• Chocolate chips
• Strawberries
• Blueberries
• Blackberries
• Banana
• Crushed nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds, etc.)
• Nut butter (peanut, almond, cashew, etc.)
• Maple Syrup
• Homemade fruit syrup
• Cinnamon
• Cacao powder

Aside from add-ins and toppings for flavor, sometimes I also like to add a scoop of protein powder or even an egg to increase the protein content a bit. The possibilities are really endless!

Now, onto the recipe!
