BANANA OATMEAL PANCAKES

I decided to share my oats pancake recipe so you can eat your pancakes but in a healthier way by using oat flour.
Ingredients - oats, banana, coconut milk but skimmed milk and any other milk will do, dried coconut flakes, coconut oil,eggs, carrots, green beans, red peppers, tomato, spring onions, onions and salt.
Method
1) Using the dry mill of your blender, blend oats to turn it into flour.
2) To make coconut milk, just blend coconut in a blender with water and sieve. You can dry the chaff or freeze it for making Smoothies, boiling meats and stocks or in your meal.
3) chop the tomato, red peppers and onions. In a pan, add a spoon of coconut oil and add the ingredients above. Cook until dry but not burned so you have to watch it closely.
4) Add chopped green beans, carrots and spring onions. Cook for a minute and take the pan off the fire. Don't over cook so you don't lose the color and some of the nutrients. Put this mixture in a bowl to cool down completely.
5) In a small plate , mash three bananas to make it easier for mixture.
6) In a bigger bowl, add two eggs, the mashed banana and coconut milk and mix with a fork or spoon. Most pancake mixture stops here but  mine doesn't.
7) Add the oats flour and mix.
8) Add the cooled down veggies to the mixture. Taste for salt before going to the pan. No sugar needed because the banana is the sweetener.
9) Now you can fry your cakes in batches. Pour little coconut oil in the pan, add a spoon or two of the batter and fry. Turn to the other side when cooked. If the spoon goes  right under then it's ready for a flip.
I made these pancakes this evening so I can store in the freezer for breakfast in the morning but I just had to have some. It tasted too good. I couldn't wait till morning to have some. Its best for breakfast though.
