Banana Pancakes (Gluten Free)

I love banana pancakes. I know others who make them, but they are fairly new to me, so I decided to share! They are simple, low calorie, and fast. My whole family loves them, which is a plus.

 

Mix:

~ 2 mashed bananas (they freeze well, so I do 2 bananas in the food processor and freeze in a sandwhich baggy for later use! Great for smoothies, too.)

~1/2 c oats (I have gluten free oats, but not necessary) -- optional

~1-2 tsp honey -- opt

~1 Tbsp cinnamon

~1 egg (or 1/4 c egg whites)

Mix together well. I use a 1/4 c measuring cup to scoop onto a greased or non-stick pan.

Makes about 7 with the measuring cup.

All this is 397 calories, or 57 calories a pancake... Changes by what kind of oats, or if you have the oats and honey. You can do just bananas and egg and its a great low cal breakfast. These are good cold, too, so I like to make several and put them in the fridge for later.



 

Then there is the added benefits of bananas!! Bananas are great for after a workout, too, especially if you did weight training. Oats are great for feeling fuller longer. Local honey has so many benefits, and cinnamon is one of those spices you just cant go wrong with! The egg is great protein. All in all, a very great meal or snack.
