Instructions
Place 1/2 cup mashed banana in a mixing bowl.
Add 3 egg whites and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder to the bowl. If using protein powder, add 1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder (or chocolate) now.
Whisk the ingredients until the batter is smooth and no large banana pieces remain. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with non-stick spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet for each pancake, leaving space between pancakes.
Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, until bubbles form in the center and the edges look set.
Carefully flip each pancake and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until cooked through.
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, spraying the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm.
