WHOLE GRAIN BANANA PANCAKES

After trying and tweaking several different pancake recipes, I'm very happy with this one. The oats add texture, the bananas make them sweet, and the almond meal adds protein and a delicate crispiness. My kids love these pancakes on a Saturday morning, and I always make sure I save some for myself! Serve warm with maple syrup.

1 egg, beaten

1 tablespoon canola oil

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pancakes will be. If your bananas are not ripe enough, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or pear for a few days.
  • Mash the bananas well: Be sure to mash the bananas well before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that they are evenly distributed throughout the pancakes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet will help to prevent the pancakes from sticking. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you can grease a regular skillet with butter or cooking spray.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Cooking the pancakes over medium heat will help to prevent them from burning. Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Serve immediately: Whole grain banana pancakes are best served immediately. You can top them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Whole grain banana pancakes are a delicious and healthy breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weekday breakfast or a special weekend brunch, whole grain banana pancakes are the perfect choice.
