Banana Oatmeal Pancakes

I have tested sooooooo many “healthy” pancake recipes over the years. This one is my clear winner! The pancakes fluff up like you want, and you can hide all types of goodness in these ;) Hint - chia seeds, flax and more!

Pro tip - These freeze really well once cooked so make a large batch, freeze in zipper top freezer bags and take out when you want them. Just warm them up in the microwave!
