Okay, seriously… is it even possible to dislike pancakes? I could literally eat them for any meal of the day. For real. I’ve seen recipes for flour-less pancakes in the past, but never dared to try them myself. For what? I was perfectly happy with my go-to pancake recipe.
Well over the past few months, I’ve been trying to cut back on white flour (just a bit) and explore other interesting breakfast options like this Chia Seed Pudding Parfait. These were both really tasty options, but I missed hot breakfast meals! I’m so glad I discovered these flour-less pancakes! I could eat a whole stack and not feel guilty about them one bit!
As you can see from the recipe below, there’s no refined sugar and NO flour! Just a few simple ingredients (that you probably already have) and you’re ready to enjoy a nice stack of flour-less pancakes in just a few short minutes. Over the past two weeks, I’ve eaten these at least 3 or 4 times… and I plan to make more this weekend! I can’t get over how easy they are.
When making these pancakes, you have two options: a ripe banana or unsweetened applesauce. If you enjoy banana-flavored foods, you’ll definitely want to use the banana option. If you prefer more of a neutral taste, you’ll want to go with the unsweetened applesauce (this one was my fav). Want to know an added bonus? These flour-less pancakes are oil-free too! Just use a non-stick pan and you don’t have to use cooking spray to keep them from sticking!
If you’re looking for a guilt-free pancake stack, look no further! These flour-less pancakes are DEFINITELY worth a try and are so tasty! Whip some up and let me know what you think in the comments below!

Flour-less Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp rolled oats (I used quick oats)
- 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce (or sub one ripe banana)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (or agave)
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat nonstick pan to medium-low heat.
- Combine all ingredients to a blender until mixture is smooth.
- Measure out each pancake using a 1/3 measuring cup and add to hot nonstick pan. Once the pancake begins to bubble on the top, flip and continue to cook until lightly browned.
- Remove from heat when done and complete the process until all batter has been cooked. Serve with your favorite fruits and top with maple syrup. Enjoy!
So good!! I’ve tried many vegan pancake recipes and this was the best! Easy and delicious!
Ahh! What an amazing compliment! So glad you liked them!
These are now our ‘go-to’ indulgence! My daughter said they were the “best healthy pancakes” she’s ever had. Also, the recipe is super simple; it took no time to make it. Next time, I will double the batch and try omitting the maple syrup since we also used it as a drizzle topping. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Carla! So glad you and your daughter enjoyed them!! 🙂
Absolutely delicious! They came out so fluffy I added ground flaxseed and I was very pleased that it did not change the consistency at all! These are definitely our new go to pancakes. I doubled the recipe so we had extra and they are just as good popped in the toaster on day two!
Fantastic! I used a little coconut oil to keep it from sticking. They tasted like banana bread heaven!!! Will definitely be using this recipe again.
My a family member is asking about how many calories are in these when you use banana?
This was an epic failure. I used all the ingredients listed and followed the instructions and the result was a mushy glob of mess. I am so disappointed.
Easy! Simple! Delicious! 😋😋😋
Thanks for sharing.
Can’t wait to try!!
These pancakes are SO good!!! This recipe will become a regular weekend menu item for me! As someone who doesn’t like bananas, I was SO excited to find a recipe for healthy pancakes that offered up apple sauce in place of bananas. This recipe did NOT disappoint!!! I added frozen blueberries and drizzled with maple syrup. 10/10 Like a bowl of oatmeal but in pancake form 🙂
So good and super easy! I’ve had hard time finding fluffy vegan pancakes that are also gluten free, and these are so fluffy and good. I added some blueberries and it was so amazing!
Thank you so very much for taking the time to share this recipe❣ They are a hit in my family. Not everyone loves oatmeal but no one here can refuse pancakes
Thank you for this!
