Protein Packed No Grain Pancakes

When I heard the ingredients for these pancakes, I was super skeptical. I mean, how can eggs and a banana make a pancake? But seriously, TRY THEM! They are sweeter than a normal pancake, which means you don't need much syrup (honestly, you may not need any at all!). Best of all? They are SO easy! And you probably have the ingredients on hand at all times!

Seriously, here are the only ingredients:

2 Eggs
1 Banana
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
cinnamon and vanilla to taste


First, throw all of your ingredients into a blender or food processor. You could also just mix them really well in a bowl if you want. I used about 3/4 capful of vanilla extract and several good shakes of cinnamon. 


Blend for just a second or two, until a batter is formed. Meanwhile, melt a little coconut oil in a frying pan or skillet. You can use any oil you want, but the coconut oil adds a nice sweetness that I really like. 


Once your oil is melted, just pour the batter into the size pancakes you want, and let it start bubbling a little around the edges before you flip it (just as you would with a normal pancake). 



Flip it over for only a few seconds on the other side, and that's it! Top it with some real maple syrup, or some fresh berries, and you've got yourself a super delicious breakfast that feels like a guilty pleasure, but is really a very healthy, high protein meal! Who knew eggs and a banana could taste so good?!
