Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 large egg
• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons dry milk powder
• 1 cup uncooked rolled oats
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed
• 1 medium banana, mashed
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup brown sugar

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Blend oats in a blender until the texture resembles coarse flour.

Step 2

Transfer oats to a bowl. Add both flours, brown sugar, milk powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Whisk together milk, egg, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and vanilla in a separate bowl; stir in mashed banana. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture; stir just until moistened, then let batter stand for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Lightly oil a griddle with 1 teaspoon oil and heat over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Working in batches, drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the hot griddle; cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, about 2 minutes. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
