A Breakfast Favorite! Banana Pancakes Recipe

Our morning food choices are so important. They can mean the difference between feeling satisfied until lunch or dealing with sugar cravings throughout the day. Today, we’re sharing a variation of our customer favorite banana pancakes recipe to help you get your day started in a balanced way.

Thanks to white sugar and flour, traditional pancakes tend to be high in carbs and sugar, which isn’t exactly the best breakfast combination. Gluten-free pancakes (bonus points for grain-free!), on the other hand, are often lower in carbs and higher in fat and protein, meaning a more filling + balanced start to your day. I love this banana pancakes recipe because not only is it super easy, but it’s way more filling and nourishing than your standard pancakes.

• 2 ripe bananas
• 2 large eggs
• 1.5 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp almond butter
• 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 tsp lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg

1. With a fork or electric mixer, combine the ripe bananas and the eggs.
2. Stir in the remaining ingredients until well combined.
3. Grease a skillet with coconut oil or butter and set to medium heat. Pour batter into the skillet, using approximately 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake.
4. Let pancakes cook until the first side is golden brown, then flip. Finish cooking on the other side for 1-2 mins.
5. Eat as is or serve with your desired toppings! My favorites include nut butter, berries + coconut whipped cream, or a pat of butter + maple syrup. Enjoy!
