🥞 Flourless Banana & Egg Pancakes (3-Ingredient!)
Ingredients (makes 6-8 small pancakes):
-
1 large ripe banana (the spottier, the sweeter!)
-
2 large eggs
-
½ tsp cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)
-
¼ tsp baking powder (optional, for extra fluffiness)
-
Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
-
Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth (no lumps).
-
Whisk in eggs (and cinnamon/baking powder if using).
-
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter/oil.
-
Pour small circles (about ¼ cup batter per pancake).
-
Cook 2-3 minutes until edges set, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes.
Pro Tips:
✔ Keep them small (easier to flip!).
✔ Low & slow heat prevents burning.
✔ Add-ins: Fold in blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts for extra flavor.
🍯 Serving Ideas:
-
Drizzle with honey, maple syrup, or nut butter.
-
Top with fresh berries, yogurt, or whipped cream.
🌟 Fluffier Variations:
-
Cottage Cheese Pancakes: Blend 1 banana + ½ cup cottage cheese + 2 eggs + ½ tsp vanilla + ¼ tsp baking powder for extra protein and fluffiness.
-
Oatmeal Pancakes: Blend ½ cup oats + 1 banana + 2 eggs + ½ tsp baking powder for a heartier texture.
These pancakes are naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and sugar-free (unless you add syrup), but still taste like a treat! Would you like a savory version (like zucchini or cheese-based)? 😊
