Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups oat flour Look for high-quality oat flour for the best flavor and texture.
  • ½ cup rolled oats Use old-fashioned oats for added texture and chewiness.
  • 2 tsp baking powder Make sure it’s fresh for optimal rise.
  • 1 tsp baking soda Reacts with the acidity of bananas for a nice lift.
  • 1 tsp cinnamon A hint of warmth and spice that enhances the flavors.
  • ½ tsp salt To balance the sweetness.
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 pcs ripe bananas (mashed) The riper, the better—swapping in various banana varieties can change the flavor profile.
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen) Fresh berries recommended in summer; frozen will work too.
  • 2 large eggs Helps bind the ingredients and create a fluffy texture.
  • ½ cup almond milk Any plant-based or regular milk works; coconut milk adds nice flavor.
  • cup vegetable oil You can substitute melted coconut oil for a richer taste.
  • ½ cup maple syrup Pure maple syrup adds sweetness; honey is a good alternative.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract For that lovely warmth and depth of flavor.
