Ingredients
1 cup oats
1 banana
2 eggs
½ medium beet
2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Start by peeling the beet and chopping it into smaller pieces. Place it in a blender or food processor along with the oats, banana, eggs, and water.
- Blend everything until smooth and well combined. If the batter is too thick, add a bit more water to reach your desired consistency.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a bit of oil or cooking spray.
- Pour the pancake batter onto the skillet, forming small circles.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your favorite fruits, syrup, or nut butter.
Notes
Top with fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, nut butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra flavor.
You can add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the batter for added flavor.
For a dairy-free version, replace the eggs with a flax egg and use a dairy-free milk alternative.
