Healthy Banana Pancakes
Guess what? The good stuff doesn't always have to be bad for you!
For those mornings you crave something a bit more substantial and indulgent, try substituting these low-calorie, high-protein pancakes for the traditional ones. They're satisfying, 100% guilt-free, and won't leave you feeling sluggish like the alternatives do.
If you can stir, pour and flip, then you can make these. All the pancakes require is one ripe, medium-sized banana and two large eggs. That's it. Start from there and then you can add whatever your heart desires.
Follow the pictures below for instructions. (Written recipe at bottom of page.)
The ingredients.
Mash the banana with a fork.
Add the two eggs and mix thoroughly.
Turn the stove on to medium heat. Sparingly coat the pan with coconut oil. Pour in the batter.
Cook for roughly 30 seconds on each side. The pancake should turn a golden brown color.
The batter should make about 8 sand dollar sized pancakes.
Top with anything you want. I chose blueberries, raspberries, and chia seeds.
There you have it - a clean, simple, and healthy breakfast that's as filling as it is delicious!
