Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour (see below for instructions on making your own)
- 1 cup white whole-wheat flour
- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup diced walnuts (optional)
- 2 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 banana, mashed
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup low-fat milk
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk dry ingredients together. in another mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients, except blueberries. Pour wet mixture into dry, and stir until combined and most lumps disappear; fold in blueberries.
Heat griddle to 350°, or until a drop of water sizzles when dropped on griddle. Spray griddle with nonstick cooking spray, and pour on 1/4 cup pancake mix. Turn pancakes over when they begin to dry around the edges and are golden on the bottom. if desired, top pancakes with additional blueberries and banan- as, and drizzle with 100% pure maple syrup.
Tip: To make oat flour, add old- fashioned oats to a blender (1 cup oats makes 1 cup flour), and blend until a flour-like consistency is achieved.

Love this pancakes!
My husband loves anything whole grain. I'll bet he would love these.
I love blueberry pancakes. Banana and blueberries! Even better.
My husband eats these. He doesn't know they're good for him, too
One of our fave breakfast recipes! Would love to win the cookbook to make even more!
Can't wait to try these out!
These are delicious
. They are on the weekend breakfast rotation. I suggest freezing extras for fast weekday breakfasts too!
Made these this weekend and they were absolutely delicious! Great recipe to try if you haven't yet!
We eat these every Saturday morning. They are without a doubt the best pancakes I've ever had……next to my Dad's of course.
The best~!!! Even my husband LOVED them, they will now be a weekend staple.
Unvelievable! Made these this morning and they were a hit! Like the idea of freezing the extras!
Question: Can you make the oat flour with steel cut oats, or are they too hard to grind?
Cindy, You would need a vitamix type mixer. I don't have one either so old-fashioned is what I use.
My husband hates banana. What part does the banana play in this recipe other than flavor? Can it be omitted? Thanks
Darlene, It adds additional sweetness since there is very little added otherwise. It certainly can be omitted or substituted with a little applesauce!
I saw these on my facebook feed and tried them..yum…a new favorite and great way to use up ripe bananas.
Can you sub coconut oil for the canola?
Veghead, Definitely…YUM!
