Oatmeal Banana Pancakes

The Wunderkids love pancakes, and I am always trying to come up with ways to make their favorite foods healthier.  I had an extra ripe banana left over the other day so I thought I’d try out some Oatmeal Banana Pancakes…it was a success!

• 1 c whole wheat flour (I used white whole wheat from King Arthur)
  1/2 c steel cut oats
  1 large egg lightly beaten
  2 tbsp cooking oil
  3/4 c milk
  1 ripe banana, mashed
  1 tbsp sugar
  1 tsp baking powder
  Mix all ingredients together, cook on medium heat.  Serve with syrup, honey, or fruit preserves.
  Makes 6-8 pancakes
