One of the nicest things about half term is that we don’t have to rush in the mornings and we can take a bit more time to have breakfast. Pancakes are a lovely thing to have for breakfast but you may not want to have the version with the flour if you are looking to lose a few pounds and look after your gut.
Here’s a simple recipe for banana pancakes that’s just bananas and eggs! A great protein breakfast that will keep you going for longer. Give it a try and let me know how you like it.
Ingredients:
- 1 very ripe banana
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp of ground flax seed (optional)
- ¼ tsp of pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp of coconut oil
Method:
Mix together banana and eggs until smooth. Add optional ingredients if using. Heat coconut oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Scoop batter, about 1/4 cup per pancake, onto the skillet and cook until the centre starts to bubble, about 30 seconds. Flip pancakes and cook until bottoms are lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more.
