• 1/2 cup milk 
• 1 banana
• 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
• drizzle olive oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Blend the oats in a vitamiser.
2. Mix in the self-raising flour and blend.
3. Add the banana, vanilla, salt and cinnamon blending again.
4. Pour the mixture into a jug and mix through the milk.
5. Heat a flat pan up and drizzle a little olive oil onto it.

To convert plain flour into self-raising flour, add two teaspoons of baking powder to each cup of plain flour.

 Adding one teaspoon of cream of tartar and half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one cup of plain flour gives the same result.
