Oats and Ragi Banana Pancakes


Hello my beautiful people there...Do you love pancakes? Oh yeh, I go crazy for them. But then the refined flour from which they are made compels me to flinch away from taking a bite. One secret you must know that I hate refined white flour (Maida) and I'm always on constant lookout for healthy substitutes that won't compromise with the taste either. Yes, finicky I am when it comes to food. 

That's why I come up with my own version of recipes which have the qualities of being healthy, nutritious and all the more yummy. 

So today presenting a simple breakfast recipe that you can easily make in the crunch of time before going office- Oats and ragi banana pancakes

Ingredients: 

Oats- one cup 
Ragi flour (or cornflour)- half cup 
Banana - One large 
Milk - 1/3rd cup
Egg - 1 
Vanilla essence: 3-4 drops 
Baking soda: 1/3 rd tsp 
Baking powder: 1/2 tsp
Honey/sugar/salt - quantity as per your choice

How to make?

Blend the ingredients in a mixer for 3-4 seconds. Check the consistency of the batter. It must be thick and not runny. If runny, adjust with cornflour or ragi flour. Allow it to stay for 15 to 20 minutes. This will make the pancakes fluffy. 

Then take a nonstick pan over the oven and drizzle with olive oil. Take one scoop of the batter and spread on the oil. Allow the pancakes to cook and become fluffy.

And you are done.


Your choice whether you want to garnish with honey, maple syrup or chocolate sauce.  

Begin your day by treating you and your family with this powerful and delighting breakfast. Stay tuned for more healthy recipes coming up here.
