The Skinny, Skinny Pancake Recipe

Serves: 2–3 people
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Ingredients

  • 1 super ripe banana (the spottier, the sweeter)
  • 2 large eggs
  • Oil for cooking (coconut oil or palm oil recommended)

Optional Add-ins (highly recommended):

  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed (helps bind and adds nutrition)
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • Pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

For Serving:

  • Fresh berries
  • Pure maple syrup
  • A dollop of Greek yogurt or nut butter

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana thoroughly with a fork in a mixing bowl until mostly smooth (a few small lumps are okay).
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the 2 eggs until well beaten.
  3. Combine the mashed banana and eggs. Stir in any optional add-ins (flaxseed, cinnamon, vanilla, etc.).
  4. Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and add a little oil.
  5. Drop silver dollar-sized portions of batter onto the pan.
  6. Cook for about 30 seconds or until bubbles appear in the center and the edges look set, then gently flip.
  7. Cook the other side until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.

Pro Tip: If you’re in a rush, toss all ingredients into a blender for a super smooth batter!These pancakes are delicate, so keep them small for easier flipping. They pair beautifully with fresh strawberries, blueberries, or a light drizzle of maple syrup.

Make It Your Own

  • Add a handful of blueberries or chocolate chips into the batter
  • Top with chopped walnuts or pecans for crunch
  • Serve with bacon or sausage for a high-protein breakfast
  • Turn leftovers into a quick parfait by layering with yogurt
