Yes, you heard that right: pancakes made with just two main whole-food ingredients—banana and eggs! They are also gluten-, dairy-, grain-, and refined sugar-free.
I can’t get over how simple these are. Eggs provide high-quality protein along with important nutrients such as choline, vitamin B12, and selenium, while bananas provide fiber, potassium, vitamin B6, and natural sweetness. No flour or grains needed.
I am a huge pancake fan and typically have them once a weekend. They’re actually my husband’s “specialty.” I usually make them with healthy gluten-free ingredients, but I was excited to discover how delicious pancakes could be with just eggs and banana. They’re kid-approved, too.
Of course, I couldn’t resist superfooding them up EMBODY style! I add chia, flax, and hemp seeds for additional fiber, plant-based protein, healthy fats, and minerals. Chia and flax also provide plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, while hemp seeds are a great source of magnesium and provide all nine essential amino acids. A little cacao adds rich chocolate flavor along with antioxidant plant compounds.
The fun part is making them your own. Try adding organic protein powder, matcha, coconut, berries, or a few dark chocolate chips. Get creative!
For a more balanced breakfast, I love pairing these pancakes with additional protein, such as Greek or coconut protein yogurt, nut or seed butter, adding protein to the batter, or another protein of your choice.
