Single-Serve Banana Oatmeal Blender Pancakes

From blender to plate in under 10 minutes!

August 11, 2025

I’ve been on a mission to like oatmeal… no, scratch that! To “Love” oatmeal as much as I love starting my day with a big bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. So, I started experimenting. First, I added fruit. Then, I tried dessert-style oatmeal. But I realized I was thinking too small, I’d put myself in a breakfast box.

That’s when I came up with my Banana Oatmeal Pancakes for one. They’re fast, naturally sweet from the banana, and packed with hearty oats that kept me full for hours. Best part? My NutriBullet made the batter in seconds, and from start to finish, these pancakes were ready in just 10 minutes.

Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

  

Dry Ingredients

• 1/3 cup 30g rolled oats
• 1/2 tsp Baking powder
• Pinch Salt Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

• 1/2 Medium ripe banana Or 1 small banana if you want it sweeter and softer
• 1/4 cup Milk Dairy or non-dairy
• 1 Egg Or 3 tbsp Greek yogurt for egg-free
• 1/4 tsp Vanilla extract

Equipment

• Nutribullet Or blender of your choice
• Pan

Method

 

1. Blend oats in a blender until they become a fine flour.
2. Add banana, milk, egg (or yogurt), vanilla, baking powder, and salt to the blender. Blend until smooth.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
4. Pour small amounts of batter into the skillet (about 2 tbsp per pancake). Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges look set, then flip and cook 1–2 minutes more.
5. Serve warm with butter, syrup, or fresh fruit.

Notes

I noticed these pancakes brown faster than regular ones, so I recommend keeping the heat on low to prevent burning. They also don’t bubble the same way traditional pancakes do, as the bubbles usually appear mainly around the edges. To check if they’re fully cooked, insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the pancakes are ready.
