I am pleased to share this simple and delicious pancake recipe:Oat Bran, Banana & Chocolate Chip Pancakes! -That is a higher fibre alternative to your standard pancake recipe. I used oat bran, dry oatmeal and bananas for the batter and added chocolate chips for some extra sweetness. These pancakes turned out amazingly well, very moist and soft inside.

This recipe has been adapted from a similar recipe from the wonderful AllRecipes.ca.
