These cooked up nicely and held together well, but the texture was a bit dense, probably because my blender isn’t powerful enough to get the oats completely smooth. I saw your above comment about substituting oat flour – what quantity would you suggest?
Same amount
Thank you! Super easy to make. The kids and I love this recipe.
awesome
They are amazing, properly a new Sunday tradition. Pro tip: add peanut butter, who doesn’t like peanut butter and banana? Thanks for the recipe!
So delicious! I ate this in a non-traditional way – I spread almond butter and chia jam on the pancake, rolled it up, and ate it! Like a thick crepe! Deelish!
Any chance I can make these in a food processor? I don’t have a blender 🙁
they might be gritty, use oat flour
This looks so amazing! Is it possible to sub regular flour in this recipe?
yes
Easy to make and delicious!
I added the cinnamon and the vanilla, yum!
Thankyou for the recipie!
awesome
