The older I get the more my body reminds me breakfast is the most important meal of the day. This flour-less, gluten-free recipe only has FOUR ingredients and puts those very ripe bananas and fresh blueberries from Wish Farms (found at supermarkets such as Publix) to use.
One of my vivid memories as a child growing up in Buffalo was during the ’70s oil crisis. My parents loaded us up in the family car early in the morning to wait in line to cross into Canada to fill up the fuel tank. When we returned to the U.S. we stopped at Perkins for pancake breakfasts.
Now that I’m older, I need to watch my carbohydrate intake so this simple recipe is perfect for satisfying my pancake craving and feeding my inner child.
Ingredients
1 ripe banana
2 eggs
½ cup Wish Farms Blueberries
½ tsp cinnamon
Directions
In a bowl, beat eggs with a fork and set aside.
Take a ripe banana and squish it inside the peel then empty contents into a bowl.
Add blueberries and mash together with a potato masher.
Combine eggs with the banana-blueberry mixture.
Add cinnamon.
Heat skillet with olive oil.
Drop a tablespoon of batter (makes silver dollar-sized pancakes) into heated skillet.
Flip pancakes over when edges bubble and batter has firmed up.
The pancakes are already naturally sweet so no syrup is really needed. If you want it, use the real stuff. Garnish with blueberries.
FTC Disclosure: To the best of my knowledge this is an original recipe created for my friends at Wish Farms.
Great idea! They look pancake-y but w/o the flour.
I’m out visiting everyone who visited during a-z. Wanted to let you know something is wonky with maybe your settings? I had added you to my blog log during the challenge. But, when I click on the link I’m taken to your blog, but a page that requires subscribing. I never subscribe as I prefer to visit blogs vs read them in my email. Couldn’t help but think this may hurt the number of visits you get, so many of us don’t like to join something to get to a blog. The only way I found my way here was to do a google search, which I did in order to let you know of the problem. It seems after the challenge several folks are having this problem, and some blogs have reverted to the google + default without even knowing it. Several I’ve been able to contact have been able to fix it and where glad to know. So, just thought I’d let you know. The pancakes look awesome, if I were dressed I popped over for breakfast.
Thank you, Sandy! Let me look into this!
