Banana Pancakes – quick, easy and delicious!

My family loves pancakes, but we haven’t been able to break free from the easy pancake mix. You know, the one that isn’t very good for us!

I have tried a few “clean” pancake recipes and here is one I am settling on (for now ;). Healthy banana pancakes that are 21 Day Fix approved! Plus, with this recipe, you can eat more for less! Less containers that is!  Usually, 1 pancake is considered a full yellow serving, but with the banana pancakes, you can eat 3 pancakes for ½ a yellow, ½ a red, and ½ purple serving. You’re getting in a protein and some fruit too! Plus, they’re super delicious! To be honest, I ate them all myself!

Ingredients

*Makes 6 pancakes.
Fix Portions (for 3 pancakes): 1/4 yellow, ½ red, 1 purple, 1/2 tsp

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 banana
  • 3/4 cup oats
  •  ½  cup unsweetened applesauce (I used a 4oz applesauce cup)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp all natural peanut butter

 

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth
  2. Pour onto a lightly greased griddle or griddle pan (I use coconut oil or coconut oil spray)
  3. Cook until lightly brown on both sides
  4. Drizzle with 1 tsp of 100% pure maple syrup


Optional goodness:
Add a favorite fruit (blueberries, strawberries, peaches, etc) or dark chocolate chips to the batter when the pancakes are on the griddle for an extra “sweet” start to your morning!
