Are you kidding me?! This recipe is ridiculous. A real LOL. Like, I’m never.ever.ever. making real pancakes again.
Lately this mashed banana + egg recipe has been blowing up the fitness/health blogs [ one lovely reader also recommended this to me + Blogilates + The Fitness Dish ]. For shits & giggles, I added my own touches: a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, some ground flaxseed, a bit of vanilla, & a dash of cinnamon. But honestly, just the two measly ingredients of bananas & egg are perfection.
Ok. Let’s talk syrup. Buying low-sugar syrup does not equal healthy. In fact, filling your bod with fake sugars is bloating, makes you crave/eat more, & is full of disgusting, sick-o chemicals. If you love syrup on silver dollllllas, choose all-natural maple syrup & use it sparingly. Drenching them until they’re wilted is gross. I mean, is it necessary to have a side of pancakes with your syrup? Nope! Use a little & move on.
Happy Tuesday!

The Skinny, Skinny Pancake
{ Serves 2-3 }
1 mashed, super ripe banana
2 eggs
Oil for the pan [ EVOO or coconut oil is my pref ]
My additions: a bit of pumpkin pie spice, 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed [ this really, really holds the mixture together ], a bit of vanilla, & a dash of cinnamon.
Optional: all-natural maple syrup + berries
+ Directions: mash your banana with a fork. In another bowl whisk eggs. Mix eggs & banana together. Add my additions. Put your choice of oil on a pan [ low-medium heat ]. Add a silver dollar-sized amount to the pan. Let the cake set for 30 seconds [ or when the center bubbles ] & flip it! Enjoy with berries & a bit of syrup. Option: if you’re pressed for time use a blender to mix your ingredients.
Looks delicious
I’ll have to whip these up! THNX

I will definitely try these pancakes! They look delicious and yet there are filled with protein and as long as they contain bananas you just can’t go wrong, right? I wil try this ASAP

Your serving size… Serves 2-3 pancakes or people ? Thanks!
People ; ). xo
Whole Eggs or just the Egg Whites?
Whole eggs : )
they were delicious!
Yay! : ))
What. This.
This is interesting. I need to try this…
Used a little bit of agave for syrup. SO yummy!!! great recipe, thanks!
These were absolutely delicious! Just for future reference though, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, when heated to a high temperature in a pan, such as when making pancakes, causes the protein structure to change and that good, olive-y fat becomes a saturated fat! In some cases oils such as vegetable oil are much better because they will not become saturated when heated!
Love this tip! Thanks Katlyn ; ).
Lauryn, these are clever… Do they take on a banana flavor?
I’ve been making a “protein pancake” recipe for years that is 3 ingredients: oats, cottage cheese & eggs [or egg whites]. I thought those were to die for but maybe this is the new trick… thanks for the tip!!
Miss you, a group of us are going to try to visit you @ body rok!!
