I’m not going to lie, I ate like 16 of these at once. They’re addicting and delicious, but also packed with nutrients. The recipe is from one of my favorite youtubers, Ellen Fisher. I have both of her e-cookbooks, and I use both of them frequently. They’re full of fun whole food recipes like this one to keep healthy eating fun and enjoyable. These are kind of pancake-esque in texture, but have the bursting flavor of a blueberry muffin. They’re a great snack or quick breakfast on the go. They’re also super easy to make!
2 small bananas
4 small pitted dates
1 1/2 tbsp nut butter
heaping 1 /4 tsp baking soda
heaping 1/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tbsp applesauce
1 1/2 c oats
3/4 c water
3/4 c blueberries
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 425 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper/silicon mat. Set aside the blueberries and half the oats. Blend remaining ingredients until completely smooth. Use a spoon to make small rounds of batter on the baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes and let cool for 10. Enjoy!
Tips/Things I Would Change:
- I soaked my dates before blending them, but I think it made the batter runny, so I wouldn’t do it again
- I used fresh berries, but feel free to use frozen ones if that’s what you have (or a different berry)
- I might try using tinfoil to crisp up the bottoms
