Recipe adapted from here.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oats (I used Quaker's quick cooking Oats)
- 1 cup Plain flour ( (refer notes))
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2 med - large Ripe Banana (I used Chiquita banana)
- 2-3 tbsp Chocolate chips (I used milk choco chips)
- 1 cup Milk (I used low fat)
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- Salt
Instructions
- Powder the Oats and keep aside. Mash bananas using a fork and keep aside.
- In a mixing bowl combine powdered Oats, flour, baking soda, salt, mashed banana, honey and choco chips.
- Now add milk gradually and mix well until the batter reaches a pouring consistency.
- Heat a non stick frying pan. Grease the pan with butter or oil (refer notes), pour a ladle of batter, spread if required. Cook on low - medium flame. Cook the pancakes for a min or so and flip them over and cook for another min.
- Serve hot with honey / maple syrup / butter / cream / chocolate sauce
Notes
Replace milk with soy milk to make it a dairy free pancake.
Try with glutinous rice flour / regular fine rice flour in place of all purpose flour for an healthier option.
Also if you dont mind using eggs, you can use 2 eggs in place of milk.
I got 12 medium size pancake with the above qty.
You can also use cinnamon powder (1/2 tsp) instead of choco chips. Also you can use a combination of cinnamon chips and choco chips.Though it tastes better on the same day, you can refrigerate the leftover for 2 days. Microwave for 30 seconds before serving.
I didn't grease the pan with oil or butter for frying the pancakes. If your pancakes are sticking to the pan, it's better to grease the pan.

Hi maria,which banana is it in Malayalam plz????
Hi Sreelakshmi,
I used the chiquita banana, not our ethakka or pachakaya, I dont know what’s it called in Malayalam :(
Hi Maria, Can we add whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour.
Hi Shiran,
I havent tried using wheat flour for this recipe, but I guess you can. However the texture will be different, also you may need to use more milk since the batter can be very thick when using whole wheat flour. Please do let me know the result, if you try it.
Cheers

Can you tell what quantity of Baking powder needs to be used (If I do not have Baking Soda)
Hi Arti,
As far as I know baking powder and soda is not interchangeable. So I’m not sure how it will work out.
