1 cup rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon optional
1 1/4 cup buttermilk or use 1 1/4 cup dairy free milk plus 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
2 large eggs
3 medium ripe bananas mashed well

Add the oats, flour, baking soda and salt to a large bowl. Whisk together well.
Measure the buttermilk into a large liquid measuring cup and add the eggs and vanilla. Mix together well with a fork.
Mash the bananas in a separate bowl or on a plate and whisk them into the buttermilk and egg mixture.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and brush the pan with some oil.
While the pan heats up, add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk them together just until the dry ingredients disappear.
Cook the pancakes over medium heat, oiling the pan sparingly each time. Dollop about 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake.
You'll know it's time to flip the pancakes when the top of the pancakes are bubbly and the edges look a bit dry.
Cook the pancakes on both sides until golden brown. Repeat until all the batter is gone.

If desired, you can add up to 1 cup of fresh or frozen berries to this banana pancakes batter and cook as directed in the recipe.
