It has been months since I posted stuff related to baking or cooking. After my last recipe post on the Easy to Remember Pancakes, I browsed through the recipes on my iPad and came across this recipe which is quite similar, except you add oats into it as well! Anyway, without further ado, here goes:
HEARTY BANANA OAT FLAPJACKS
PREPARATION TIME: LESS THAN 20 MINUTES
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
* 2 large ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
* 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cup Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked) (I used Ben's organic instant baby oats)
* 1 tablespoon baking powder
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (I omitted this)
* 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional) (I omitted this)
* 1 cup fat-free milk (I used a packet of full-cream UHT milk)
* 1 egg, lightly beaten
* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
* Aunt Jemima® syrup, warmed (I omitted this)
* Banana slices (optional)
* Coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans (optional) (I omitted this)
What to Do?
* In medium bowl, combine banana slices and sugar; stir to coat slices with sugar. Set aside.
* In large bowl, combine flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt; mix well.
* In medium bowl, combine milk, egg and oil; blend well.
* Add to dry ingredients all at once; mix just until dry ingredients are moistened. (Do not overmix.)
* Heat griddle over medium-high heat (or preheat electric skillet or griddle to 375°F). Lightly grease griddle.
* For each pancake, pour scant 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle.
* Top with four or five banana slices. Turn pancakes when tops are covered with bubbles and edges look cooked.
* Serve with warm syrup and, if desired, additional banana slices and nuts.
