How to make the PANCAKES:

1. Blend the oats until flour-like. Then whisk together the oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, dry milk, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
2. Whisk the eggs, milk, vegetable oil & vanilla. Stir in the mashed bananas.
3. Pour the egg mixture into flour mixture & stir until moistened.
