Flourless Banana Pancakes

Whoa do I have a winner for you guys. I believe I have made these 5 times now and we still are craving them for breakfast. Don't let the low carb/flourless factor fool you. They are so satisfying because they are moist, flavorful and you don't feel like crap after eating them.


Makes 7-8 medium pancakes

2 ripe bananas, mashed
1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
2 teaspoons oil (olive, vegetable, coconut or whatever you have)
4 eggs
2 teaspoons maple syrup
Optional: I like to throw in mini chocolate chips :)
*I like to add a few tablespoons of GF flour to give them a little more volume (optional).


In a medium bowl mix mashed bananas with cinnamon, oil, eggs and maple syrup. Beat with a fork until everything is well incorporated.

Heat  a large skillet over medium heat. Spray the pan with oil and pour batter to make the desired pancake size. Cook for 3 minutes on one side (or until golden brown) then flip and cook for 2 minutes on the other side.

Serve with butter, maple syrup and whipped cream!

**You can also make this recipe with pumpkin puree and take out the banana. 1/3 cup of puree for each banana.
