Pancakes


My personal preference for posting recipes here is that they be "company-worthy". That is to say that someone who is not on a special diet would eat the dish, and say "Wow, this is good!" and not even think that it's part of some unusual regimen. (Other posters here may have a different standard, and that's OK!)

These pancakes are an exception to my "rule". I don't think regular eaters would enjoy them very much, but for us...they're pretty darn good. My toddler can't get enough of them, and it's a good way to get eggs into him.

Peanut Butter Banana Pancakes

Ingredients
1 very ripe banana, mashed
2 Tbsp. salted peanut butter
3 eggs

Method

Blend all of the ingredients together with a whisk or hand mixer. Pour onto a greased (I use ghee) griddle that's been preheated to "medium". Cook until done on one side, flip and watch carefully as second side seems to cook more quickly.

I serve these with butter and honey mixed with fresh lemon juice. I also had them with a quick raspberry syrup made from heated frozen raspberries and honey. That was good too.

    I just found your blog and I am so excited! We are also doing gaps and my blog is devoted to *Thrifty* Grain-Free living! You can read my story and our family's journey on my blog. I'm excited to dig through your archives as well!

    I am totally going to make these pancakes tomorrow, as I have all the ingredients. My kids don't like "eggs" either so I have to sneak them into all kinds of things!

    Great to see you!

  2. I've made so many waffle variations lately, that I've been wanting to make a GF pancake. I cant eat eggs, so I'll try substituting it with tapioca. Thanks for posting the recipe!

  6. I tried these pancakes without the banana today and they turned out just fine. Probably even easier to cook.
