Craving a fast, healthy, and delicious breakfast? These air fryer banana oat pancakes are naturally sweet, fiber-packed, and totally gluten-free—no stove needed, just your trusty air fryer!
🥣 Ingredients You'll Need
1 ripe banana (extra sweet & creamy)
1/2 cup rolled oats (whole grain goodness)
1 egg (for fluffiness & protein)
1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like this almond milk)
1/2 tsp baking powder (helps them rise!)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional, but adds warmth!)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (for extra flavor!)
🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Blend the Batter
🔹 In a high-speed blender, combine:
✔️ Banana (peeled & broken into chunks)
✔️ Rolled oats
✔️ Egg
✔️ Milk
✔️ Baking powder, cinnamon & vanilla
🔹 Blend until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk! - Preheat the Air Fryer
🔥 Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and let it heat up for 2-3 minutes.
💡 Pro Tip: Always preheat your air fryer for even cooking! - Prepare the Basket
🔸 Lightly grease the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray
🔸 OR use perforated parchment paper to prevent sticking while allowing airflow. - Cook the Pancakes
🔹 Scoop small rounds of batter (about 3 inches wide) onto the prepared surface.
🔹 Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 4 minutes.
🔹 Flip carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
💡 Pro Tip: If using a silicone air fryer liner, pancakes won’t stick, and cleanup is a breeze! - Serve & Enjoy!
