Gluten-Free (Healthy) Banana Pancakes

Print  

These delightful pancakes will thrill your tastebuds and energize your body! They are delicious plain or with a side of yogurt or berries.

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe or overripe banana
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 egg white
  • pecans and/or flax meal(if desired)
  • yogurt or berries (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a bowl (I use a potato masher).
  2. Add egg and egg white; continue mashing until almost completely smooth (may be a little lumpy). 
  3. Heat a griddle and spray with GF non-stick spray (I use olive oil).
  4. Scoop the batter onto the hot griddle – a bit less than 1/4 cup per pancake.
  5. Add nuts or flax meal if desired. 
  6. Cook over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Check the underside but lifting edge with a spatula sprayed with non-stick spray. When the underside is golden, quickly slide the pancake flipper under the pancake and flip gently but quickly. 
  7. Cook until golden on both sides.
  8. Remove to plate and serve immediately. 
  9. Since these are already very moist, they taste great without syrup but sometimes I serve them with yogurt or smashed fruit.
