I have been making them for a year now for my kids. We love pancakes on weekends so it’s quite regular in our home.
Finally, my daughter insisted me on sharing this vegan banana pancakes recipe here on this blog.
So, I clicked few pictures and here I am excited to share my new creation with you.

Ingredients for banana and oatmeal pancakes
Rolled oats
Banana
Oat milk
Vanilla
Baking powder
Salt
Hence, all you need is 6 simple ingredients for this vegan banana oatmeal pancakes recipe.
Ingredients notes:
Oats – even though oats are gluten free but make sure to read the label to make sure it is certified gluten free. I prefer old fashioned rolled oats for my recipes because of its texture but any rolled oats will work.
Banana – make sure to use a little ripe one but not too ripe. The banana that has few brown spots on its skin would be the best for this recipe.
Oat milk – I wanted to make these nut free. Moreover, oat milk is sweeter in taste comparatively and creamier.

How to make Vegan Banana Oatmeal Pancakes
Firstly, in a blender, I combined oats, 1 banana, oat milk, vanilla, baking powder and salt.
Secondly, I blended it coarsely.
Then, I spooned it in a mixing bowl and folded in sliced bananas in it.
Then, I gently gave it a quick mix.
Thereafter, I heated a nonstick pan/griddle and poured about ¼ cup of the batter and shaped it round with a spoon.
I let it cook until a net/bubble started to form at its top and the sides started to dry up.
Then, with the help of a flat spatula, I flipped it over to the other side very gently. I let it cook again until golden brown from the bottom.
Afterwards, I scooped it on a plate. I repeated the above process for the rest of the batter.
Lastly, I garnished it with berries, nuts and seeds.
We all enjoyed it heartily and happily.
Variations:
- Along with banana slices you may fold in ¼ cup of dairy free chocolate chips and then make the pancakes for kids.
- Make the pancakes as explained above. Then, melt dairy free chocolate chips in the microwave and drizzle it over the pancakes.
- To make it fancier, do not add banana slices in the batter. Pour ¼ cup of the batter on the warm pan/griddle. Half way through, when it starts to cook, top it with few banana slices. Gently, flip it over to the other side and cook for few minutes or until golden brown in color. Gently release it from the bottom and flip it on the plate to serve banana upside down pancakes.
Expert tips:
- While blending the batter, do not blend it for a very long time. Pulsing is the best option to get the grainy coarse batter texture.
- While cooking pancakes, instead of separating it from the pan prematurely, let the bubbles or net form at the top and sides dry up. That is when the pancake should be flipped.
They taste best when served immediately. However, refrigerate the leftovers for about 4-5 days. Then, microwave it well. Garnish and serve.
Yes! Its oil free and made with heathy oats. I only used bananas as sweetener, so it’s all natural and whole food ingredients. Hence, these pancakes can be enjoyed frequently.
The batter would be too smooth and the measurement also changes. So, I would recommend sticking to rolled oats for these blender pancakes.

Made these for breakfast today, and they were delicious. I added some bananas to the mix and some I just added to the top of the pancake before flipping. I will definitely make them again.
