Easiest Banana Pancakes (2 ingredients and grain free)

You have no idea how good these grain free banana pancakes taste! They have to be one of the best breakfast recipes I have made in a long time.. Naturally sweet and flavorful from the ripe banana, they don't even need to be topped with syrup..

In addition, these gluten free and grain free delights are EASY to make and have only two ingredients: a banana and eggs.. I decorated the plate with some berries and cinnamon, but believe me, they didn't anything extra for flavor.

I love these pancakes because they are not heavy or doughy and are light and easy to digest. So, you won't walk away with that heavy pancake feeling. Truly these pancakes make a delicious, light, healthy breakfast. They are perfect pancakes for those who follow a gluten free diet, for those watching their weight, and for those who want to avoid grain.

It is also a fun project to make silver dollar pancakes with little kids because it's so easy.

I made them into seven normal size pancakes , but they could also make two or three large crepes.

If you make a crepe, it can be filled with cottage cheese, berries, or just eat them plain. You won't be disappointed.

Ingredients:

Directions

Break up banana and put into a blender. Add eggs. Blend until smooth.

Spray a large skillet, pour batter into the pan. Allow to firm up on one side ( takes about 1 minute) and then flip for about 30 seconds or until dry. Makes 6 pancakes..

Why grain free?

Being gluten intolerant, I can't eat the following grains: wheat, rye, and barley. However, beyond gluten free there are many people who follow a grain free diet and eat no grain at all!! I was interested in understanding more about a grain free diet and it's benefits, so I did some research. According to a post in a blog called 10 Reasons to Give up Grains on a blog called , The Nourished Kitchen it turns out that all grains, including rice, oats, etc. can be hard to digest and absorb and therefore

cause inflammation in the system

cause problems in the gut

cause problems with the joints

cause problems with the skin

and are addictive for many people ( I know carbs are addictive for me)

The post explains in detail the whys and hows. I have no affiliation with The Nourished Kitchen, but I think this is an informative post that is worth reading 10 Reasons to Give up Grains
