Banana Oatmeal Chia Pancakes
My favorite meal of the day has always been BREAKFAST because it’s the first meal after waking up (hence the name, you break the fast)! Nothing yells weekend to me more than PANCAKES.🥞 This has always been a special childhood favorite for me as my mother would always make them on the weekends. There is something so fun about making the batter from scratch, forming small circles on the skillet, flipping them, and enjoying them with syrup and any other toppings of choice.
On weekends, I like to take my time making breakfast or brunch, sipping on my coffee and savoring every bite. I decided to create a comforting, healthy and delicious pancake recipe and I am beyond excited to share it with you!! I fell in love with these instantly because they honestly taste like mini #bananabread cakes (quarantine trend). 🤩
