- Hello, I hope everyone is well and having a bright holiday. 😃 This afternoon, I made a snack to eat before dinner. It's a sweet treat that is simple to make, using ingredients already in the kitchen. The main ingredients I used are bananas, corn, and oats, made in a pancake style that is grilled until fragrant. Besides being easy to make, it's also easy to eat and nutritious. The children enjoyed the flavor because it isn't overly sweet. They taste best when eaten hot, right off the griddle. As an idea for making your own snack at home. Here's the recipe.
🍌 Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 5 tablespoons of cooked sweet corn
- 2 tablespoons of oats
- 2 tablespoons of white sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons of coarsely crushed roasted peanuts
- 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
🫕 Instructions
- I start by preparing the corn. Take the cooked corn, slice the kernels off, and chop them coarsely. Alternatively, you can blend them briefly in a food processor.
- Put the chopped corn in a mixing bowl. Add the bananas and use a spoon to mash them finely. Mix them together with the corn.
- Add the granulated sugar, salt, crushed roasted peanuts, and white sesame seeds. Then stir everything together well.
- Add the oats. However, if you don't have any, you can substitute with glutinous rice flour. Mix everything together once more. Let this mixture rest for about 15 minutes.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Lightly coat it with vegetable oil. Then, scoop the mixture into the pan, one tablespoon at a time.
- Cook the pancakes by flipping them several times until both sides are cooked through.
- About these pancakes, I use less sugar, so the natural sweetness and fragrance are the main flavors, combined with the nutty aroma from the peanuts and white sesame.
- The texture is soft with a gentle crunch from the corn, which creates a perfect and distinct contrast. The warmth and aroma right off the griddle further enhance the deliciousness, making this a snack that is both satisfying and nutritious.
- I hope this serves as a good idea for you. Thank you for stopping by, and see you again next time! 🥰
