These Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes need just 7 ingredients and a blender. Gluten-free, satisfying and delicious Banana Oatmeal Pancakes! Vegan Breakfast Soy-free Recipe. Jump to Recipe
Starting the new year with these Easy Banana Oat Pancakes! Just blend up banana, oats, sweetener, leavening and a bit of almond flour and done!
These pancakes are best served fresh as they are fluffy right off the girdle. With no gluten, the fluffyness tends to reduce on cooling. Refrigerate the batter to keep for longer and make the pancakes when ready to serve! Add spices or blends of choice for flavor, add some candied fruits, chocolate chips or nuts to the batter for variation
Ingredients for Vegan Banana Oat Pancakes
- a ripe banana
- old fashioned oats
- almond flour for a bit of hold, moisture and texture. You can use other ground up nuts or seeds such as sunflower or pumpkin. Some of these will add a stronger flavor.
- tapioca starch or other starch for binding
- baking powder and lemon juice for leavening
- cinnamon or vanilla for flavor
- non dairy milk such as almond milk, soy milk, light coconut milk or oat milk

Please clarify:
Is the one cup of oats supposed to be dry oats or already cooked? Thank you!
They are dry oats.
My (and my wife’s) favorite vegan pancakes yet!
Yay!!
I waffled this today, and it came out fantastic! I love the pancakes, but wanted to have this over a few days as breakfast, so thought waffles might be good. They came out crispy and perfect. Oh, and I did both cinnamon and vanilla this time.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to make it in the waffle maker next time.
We liked the flavor alot, but it seemed the pancakes were a little doughy. I think maybe if I turn the heat lower and cook longer that might work. Also hard to get all the batter out of the blender due to the blades, so maybe putting in a bowl or measuring cup before it thickens would work better. Thanks for the recipe, yummy!
sorry they didn’t turn out how you expected! yes, blenders can be that way – with things like hummus too. Medium heat is recommended. I love my Blendtec blender & Nutribullet for everything – you can check them out here: https://www.amazon.com/shop/veganricha/list/LTI6QY3XOMOC
Simple and delicious. Thank you for the recipe, will make again.
Hello. I ran out of lemons…. is there something I can substitute?
Lime or vinegar
Hi! I really liked this recipe! One of the best I have found. My son has multiple food allergies, including eggs, dairy, wheat and almonds. I have a question, could I substitute apple sauce for bananas? And also could I use coconut flour?
the bananas have a very different texture – apple sauce wouldn’t form a pancake…
My new go to pancake. So easy, so delicious. Thank you Richa!
glad you got to it!
I was hungry for pancakes, but I am plant based, and allergic to gluten. I had found this recipe about 5 months ago, and decided to try it yesterday. I found these very tasty, and different from other pancakes. I added the pumpkin spice to the recipe. I at my last one today, and it was even better tasting then the first day. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tasty recipe.
that’s great. thanks for popping in ♡
