1) Mash up bananas in a large bowl
2) Whisk eggs (using a fork is just fine!) and add to banana paste
3) Fry gently in a pan on low-medium heat with a little heated oil or butter
Oh so easy!
Pancakes. Fiddly and frustrating to make, fatty to eat. Taste awesome though. Surely there must be some sort of middle ground?
What if I told you it’s possible to make pancakes from just two ingredients – bananas and eggs? ‘MADNESS!’ I hear you cry. But it’s true.
Health benefits
One banana and two eggs will knock up a brilliant breakfast for one person – and one that’s full of vitamin b6 – which is normally found in fish and meat.
It helps to stop skin rashes, fatigue and mood swings and is used with over 100 different enzymes in the body (banana benefits).
They’re also full of manganese which is used for bone production, skin integrity and for blood sugar control.
It also protects against free radicals and skin issues, and can even alleviate asthma (2).
Want more? Well on top of they even contain high amounts of fiber, potassium and protein. What are you waiting for?

You’ll need a non-stick pan to make these pancakes work, that’s it. Not happy with your current one? See what you think about this pan. I recently started using coconut oil instead of butter for frying these fellas and I have to say it’s really good! If you want, give coconut oil a shot. Please note the nutritional data does not include oil or butter for frying.

I’m going to try this in the AM, I think using them as bread and making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich sounds amazing. Cant wait.
I very recommendable combo I daresay!
Love these!! I always add a bit of oat flour so it’s easier for them to stay together 🙂
Ooh nice! Glad you like them, Bianca! 🙂
Love these!! I have made a variation of them for years for my kids.
Add a handful of spinach, vanilla extract, cinnamon and 1/4c quick oats. Throw it all in the blender. SO Delicious!!!
Always happy to find another fan! Love ’em too! 😀
Not delicious at all! Perhaps my bananas were too ripe?
Hi Gwen,
to be honest I do like the pancake, especially with ripe bananas. Not sure if something went wrong. But maybe the taste just isn’t for you.
Love these! Been eating for breakfast for weeks now. 1 banana 1 egg 1 egg white and a couple tbs of unsweetened coconut. Sometimes top with cinnamon, almond butter or real maple syrup. So good and filling! Thanks for the recipe.
Youre most welcome, Shelby!
Hello. What’s going on with the veggie challenge. All code???

They kept breaking due to being too soft.. what mistake did I make
As it sounds you didn’t cook them long enough. They are allowed to turn a bit brown 🙂
