Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel the banana and place it into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the banana until it’s smooth and free of large lumps.
- Crack the eggs into the bowl with the mashed banana. Use a whisk or fork to mix until the eggs and banana are fully combined, creating a smooth batter.
- Lightly coat a non-stick skillet or frying pan with a short spray of cooking spray oil. Note: A brief spritz enough to coat the surface is sufficient.
- Heat the pan over medium heat. Ensure the pan is well-heated before adding the batter to avoid sticking.
- Pour or ladle a small amount of batter onto the pan, forming circles (about 3-4 inches in diameter).
- Cook them for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and bubbles form on the surface.
- Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Once the pancakes are cooked, transfer them to a plate.
- Serve warm. You can enjoy these pancakes as is or top them with additional toppings like fresh fruits, nuts, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added flavor and protein.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and easier mashing.
- Blend the eggs and banana thoroughly to ensure a smooth batter consistency.
- Heat your pan over medium heat and wait until it's fully heated before adding the batter for best results.
- Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
- Serve with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and add fresh fruits or nuts for extra flavor and nutrition.
