Over the past two years we have been trying to eat more healthy foods as a lifestyle change, not a diet. It’s amazing how many healthy recipes are still delicious. It’s all about taste. And most of these recipes don’t have too many ingredients. In fact I’ve recently read that if you should find recipes or items you’re buying that have 5 ingredients. These pancakes only have 2! (Minus the toppings)
I cannot believe how easy this breakfast is and how delicious! I found the recipe on Food Matters TV. Your kids will love them! They’re loaded with protein. They’re quite filling! And only 33 calories plus any butter or jam you add. This breakfast has the best of both worlds: they’re tasty and nutritious. It’s idea for your picky eaters.
Ingredients: 2 eggs 1 banana, peeled, coarsely chopped Coconut oil or butter (I used butter)
Optional Toppings: Butter with Jam Pinch of cinnamon Handful of fresh strawberries 2 tbsp natural yogurt (coconut or organic dairy)
Directions:
1. Whisk 2 eggs in a bowl, add the banana and mash together to form a batter. Now I had to try this twice because I had the great idea to put it my blender and that pancake just didn’t work. You want it to be lumpy with the bananas.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil (I used avocado oil) in a frying pan and pour in the batter to create a small pancake, or, if you are using a large frying pan, you can create two small pancakes with that amount of batter in one pan. I found it best to make two medium sized pancakes separately.
3. Let the pancake cook through before flipping it. After flipping it, let the other side cook through.
4. Serve with fresh strawberries and yogurt, cinnamon, butter, pure maple syrup, nut butter, seed sprinkle, raw honey or your desired toppings. I used butter and some homemade lavender apricot jelly (from my niece) and a few cranberries and pepita seeds. Yum!!
5. Make sure to listen to Jack Johnson’s “Banana Pancakes” while you cook and eat!
