Tips for Making Banana Oatmeal Pancakes

I love my new non-stick saucepan! It has the perfect size for making these pancakes and is very easy to clean.

 I usually use medium heat when cooking but you can also have them on low if needed. Make sure they don’t get too brown before being cooked through all the way (this happens because of eggs). 

Skip using peanut butter if desired. Try almond or cashew instead with some Nutella added in there as well. Even gluten-free, Harvest Gluten-Free Oats too since those work really well together nut wise.
