Ingredients
1Bananasuper ripe or roasted
1/4cupVegetable oilI like Olive
1 1/2cupButtermilk
2Eggs
3TbspSugar
2tspBaking powder
1/2tspBaking soda
1/2tspKosher salt
2cupOat flour
PinchGround cardamomoptional
2Egg whites
3TbspButterclarified butter is best
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together your mashed banana, oil, buttermilk, eggs and sugar. Add a touch of orange zest, vanilla extract- whatever you like here.
Add the dry ingredients all at once over the wet and whisk until just combined. Let this sit so the oat flour can absorb the wet ingredients.
Whip up the two eggs whites until they reach soft peak stage. Fold this into the batter just before cooking.
Heat up a griddle or cast iron skillet. Melt 1 Tbsp butter (clarified butter will keep your pan from smoking) over medium high heat. Turn the heat down a touch and drop the batter into any sized pancake you choose. Cook until pancakes are golden on one side, then flip over, just once, to brown the other side. Repeat until the batter is through.
