Ingredients

  • 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 medium eggs
  • butter or oil for greasing the pan

Optional extras

  • 2-3 tablespoons almond meal adds a nutty flavor and a bit of texture
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder or protein powder for a chocolate twist or a protein boost
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder for fluffier pancakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla enhances the flavor
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips or fresh berries for added sweetness and flavor
  • pinch cinnamon a warm spice that pairs beautifully with bananas

Instructions

  • Start by peeling your ripe bananas and placing them in a mixing bowl. Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the bananas until they are smooth with minimal lumps.
  • Crack the eggs into the bowl with the mashed bananas. Using a whisk or fork, beat the eggs into the banana mixture until fully combined.
  • If you’re feeling adventurous, add any optional extras like almond meal, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla, or cinnamon. Stir them in until well incorporated.
  • Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to grease the surface. Allow the pan to heat until hot but not smoking.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. If using chocolate chips or berries, sprinkle them on top now. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
  • Gently flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown. Remove from pan and repeat with remaining batter.
  • Stack your pancakes high and serve warm. Top with fresh fruit, nut butter, or nuts for added crunch and enjoy!
