I have no need to be gluten free, in fact I love my carbs. I could live on a whole wheat bread and pasta.
But I know so many people for various reasons have to cut the gluten out. And frankly, as much as I love carbs, I do think it is very important to eat a variety of foods in order to maximize nutrients.
Gluten-Free Oats are my go-to for creating delicious gluten-free oats recipes.
So onto gluten-free pancakes, because, well these Banana Oat Pancakes are incredible.
Easy Banana Oat Pancakes
These healthy banana pancakes are light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet. They come together in the blender and are easy enough for weekday breakfasts.
BONUS: Banana Oatmeal Pancakes couldn’t be any easy or cheaper to make!!!
What?! Gluten-free that doesn’t require crazy flours or stabilizers–this is too good to be true.
There are many versions of blender pancakes floating around on the web but this is the recipe for Banana Oat Pancakes that I have tweaked and found to come out perfect every time!!
These Healthy Banana Pancakes are delicious topped with a bit of pure maple syrup or simply fresh sliced fruit. I enjoyed them the last time I made them with blackberries and sliced bananas–heavenly!
Tips for Healthy Banana Oatmeal Pancakes
- Because you are blending the oats, you can easily use old-fashioned oats or quick-cooking oats–just not steel cut oats.
- The riper the bananas, the sweeter the oat pancakes will be naturally.
- You can use any variety of milk–therefore, they are easily made to be dairy-free banana oat pancakes.
- I often use frozen bananas. I just heat the frozen bananas up in the microwave for a minute or two and then cool slightly so as not to scramble the eggs when added to the blender.
- These banana pancakes are perfectly sweet. They are absolutely perfect with a smear of peanut butter or other nut butter of choice.

What you say oatmeal in the ingredients list, do you mean cooked oats or dry oats, or ground up oats? I haven’t made banana pancakes before but I’m excited to try these. (I’m sure my toddler will love them!)
Hi Rebecca, quick oats or old fashioned dry oats work for this recipe–the blender will blend them up for you! 🙂 I hope you and your toddler enjoy!
Really good even though I forgot the peanut butter!
I am so glad you enjoyed. I love these with and without peanut butter.
Made them this morning, added chocolate chips, my twins loved them, literally saw them lick their plates. Thank you
Oh that makes me so happy Natasha, thank you for sharing.
Do you know how you could convert this into a waffle recipe? The pancakes are amazing though! Thank you!
Hi Emily! I need to play around with making these into waffles. You would need a bit more oats and possibly some extra oil.
This is one of the easiest pancake recipe + healthy + kid-approved! How much more better can it get? Topped it with some bread berries and honey, were good to go on any day! And my kids say their days are a lot better when it’s started with a pancake breakfast! 😍
YAY!!! I am so glad your kids were able to start their day with these easy pancakes!!!
My family is due for a big batch of pancakes and these will make everyone happy! So simple when you use a blender and I’m with you…yes, to the peanut butter!
YES YES to the peanut butter for sure Sandra 🙂 I hope you and your family enjoy
We’re not GF but like you I love to have GF recipes in my arsenal and these look fantastic! Such a great pancake recipe!
Thanks Jenn! It is always helpful to have Gfree recipes when needed or to change it up a bit. Enjoy
Love a quick and easy breakfast recipe! These look delicious!

Thank you Lane and Holly! They are easy and good! I hope you give them a try!
So loving these! I don’t need to cut my gluten either – but I do love oat pancakes – and adding bananas into the mix sounds wonderful!
Shashi–I know you will LOVE these!
What a quick and easy recipe! Perfect for these busy school mornings.. 🙂
Thanks Krystal–I make them almost at least once a week for school!
I’m such a breakfast person and pancakes are my absolute favorite. And I love me some blender pancakes! I usually add peanut butter to mine 🙂
Peanut Butter makes everything better! I am actually getting ready to share my blender chocolate peanut butter cup pancake recipe soon!
These look so fluffy and delicious. Why have I never made pancake batter in the blender? It’s so easy!
So much easier Joanie. Hope you give these a try!

Blender pancakes, what a lovely idea! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Florian!
Ahh yes! Blender pancakes are my absolute FAVORITE weekend breakfast (well really anytime breakfast). I love how simple they are and yet they’re super moist, fluffy and the banana flavor is amazing! loving your photos too 🙂
This is a go-to method of mine. Sometimes I use coconut instead of oats! I try to explain to my mother-in-law that her having Celiac doesn’t mean she is doomed to eat awful food for the rest of her life!
I hope your mother in law knows how blessed she is to have you! You don’t have to eat awful food or expensive food and can still manage wheat allergies/celiac disease!!
You really couldn’t get any easier than this recipe. Although I don’t need to eat gluten-free, this is a great option when I have house guests who do.
So easy! Great for busy mornings and/or gluten free guests. We are not gluten free either, but these are so delicious and easy, I will take them any morning.
Wow !! I should try this ! Sounds delicious. Thank you for linking at Bloggers Brags . I have pinned to Bloggers Brags Pinterest board. We would love to see you today at the party.
