These pancakes have been on our breakfast table more times than I can count. They’re soft, naturally sweet, and made with just 5 ingredients — no flour, no sugar, no fuss.
Perfect for baby-led weaning, toddler breakfasts, or honestly any mom who needs something fast and wholesome on the table.
Ingredients (serves 2)
2 ripe bananas
2 eggs
½ cup rolled oats
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp coconut oil or butter (for cooking)
Instructions
Mash bananas well in a bowl until smooth.
Add eggs and mix until combined.
Stir in oats and cinnamon.
Let the batter rest for 2 minutes — the oats will absorb the moisture.
Heat coconut oil in a pan over medium-low heat.
Drop small spoonfuls of batter into the pan.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip.
Cook another 1-2 minutes until golden.
Tips:
The riper the banana, the sweeter the pancake
Make mini versions for baby-led weaning (easier for little hands to grip)
Freeze leftovers and reheat in the toaster — weekday breakfast sorted
Top with a thin layer of nut butter, sliced banana, or a drizzle of honey (for kids over 1)
No syrup needed — these are naturally sweet and totally delicious.
