Place all ingredients in the blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
1 banana, ⅓ cup oats, 1 large egg, ¼ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Spray the griddle or nonstick pan with cooking spray or oil or melt butter and spread across it. Pour pancake batter directly from the blender making 3-4 inch diameter pancakes. One batch will make 4-6 pancakes.
If desired, evenly sprinkle chocolate chips or any other add-in on top of the pancakes. Flip pancakes when bubbly and able to easily slide the spatula underneath them to flip, about 1-2 minutes after cooking. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Notes
To store: I let them cool on a cooling rack until totally cooled off, then I transfer them to a storage container or plastic bag to store them in the fridge. They have never made it more than 4 days in our house. They are probably good for up to a week. To freeze: I haven't tried freezing them, so I'm not 100% on if the texture would stand up. If you want to try it, let the pancakes cool completely before transferring them to a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. I would defrost under refrigeration and reheat in the microwave.
