Pancakes are a breakfast staple, but they’re often loaded with sugar and unhealthy fats. If you’re looking for a healthier option that still satisfies your craving for pancakes, try making banana nut pancakes. This recipe is easy to make and uses wholesome ingredients that will keep you full and energized throughout the morning.
BANANA NUT PANCAKES OVERVIEW
These banana nut pancakes are a great way to use up ripe bananas that might otherwise go to waste. They’re also a great way to add some extra protein and healthy fats to your breakfast, thanks to the eggs and walnuts. Plus, they’re gluten-free and naturally sweetened by the bananas, so they’re suitable for a variety of dietary needs.
I had 3 very ripe bananas and didn’t want them to go to waste. Either I eat them all or make something with them. I figured let’s make what everyone does – Pancakes!
Check out how I made mine
THE BREAK DOWN
3 Ripe Bananas
2 Whole Eggs
2 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
¼ Cup Brown Sugar Walnuts
HOW TO MAKE BANANA NUTTY PANCAKES
In a small bowl, peel all 3 bananas and mash them with a fork. I like to keep them a little chunky but it’s your preference how you mash them. Save half of one banana if you want to decorate for later.
Crack those 2 eggs in the same bowl that you’ve been juggling! Whip it, Whisk it, Do your thang with them. Now mix in the walnuts. Save a few to garnish!
Heat up your pan and add 1 table spoon of coconut oil. Save the other for the next cake
Add the mixture once the pan sizzles. Now it’s up to you what size of a pancake you want. Do the peak-a-boo check to see if your pancake becomes brown and flip them over to your desired brownness.
Repeat the same process using the other tablespoon of oil. Garnish your pancakes with slices of bananas and walnuts.
Tah-Daaaah!
