This pancake batter consists of only five ingredients and is easily made in a blender. The bananas add natural sweetness while the oats taken for a ride in the blender serve as flour. Blueberries and lemon zest add refreshing elements and are a perfect flavor combination in this breakfast treat. Serve these thin pancakes with your favorite fresh cut fruit and a dollop of Greek yogurt.
