Friday

Kick-start that Friday feeling with these weekend favourites

Breakfast :

Banana Oatmeal Pancakes

Ingredients

Directions

Mash the bananas
Add the eggs, oats and a pinch of salt and cinnamon.
Whisk everything together until smooth (or use a blender, if preferred)
Melt a little butter or dairy alternative in a nonstick pan and cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes, until set. You’ll want to make sure the heat isn’t too high so they don’t burn
Flip and cook for another 30 seconds on the other side
Serve with some honey and fresh fruit
