Happy Pancake Day!
Forget about drowning your crepes in an ocean of maple syrup and overly fried bacon...
how about we rustle up a stack of pancakes that look the part, taste like the real thing and are 100% clean too?
The eggs are a great source of protein and healthy fats, the banana provides you with a burst of energy and potassium whilst the apple gives you a good dose of fiber!
Behold, my 2 ingredient banana pancakes with hot apple cinnamon slices. Delicious, guilt-free and even easier to make than the traditional kind. No sieving and measuring required. I also filmed a video version of the recipe too (that's embedded below) if you fancy watching it.
Let's go!
You Will Need:
{Pancakes}:
2 medium free range eggs
1 ripe medium-large sized banana
Blueberries (optional)
{Cinnamon Apple Slices}:
An apple
Cinnamon
Honey (optional)
1. Crack two eggs into your food processor/blender/mixing bowl.
2. Add in your chopped banana.
(If you're mixing these by hand, make sure to pre-mash the banana before adding it into the egg!)
3. Blend/mix until smooth.
For a more authentic appearance, I would use a food blender/smoothie maker. Pulse it for about a minute or so; this will result in incredibly light and fluffy golden pancakes. You could also mash the ingredients by hand with a fork. Try and get it as smooth as possible as the rougher the texture, the more it'll look like little banana omelettes than pancakes ;)
4. Pre-heat your pan to a low-medium heat. Drizzle in some olive/coconut oil and pour in your pancake mix!
5. Once they're starting to firm up and form little 'bubbles' on the surface, it's flippin' time. Repeat until there isn't any batter left. Stack them and you're done!
Now it's time for the cinnamon apple slices:
1. Slice the apple into a bowl.
2. Sprinkle in your desired amount of cinnamon and mix.
3. Add a little hot water and microwave for 3-4 minutes.
4. Serve them with your pancakes and drizzle in some honey for added sweetness.
5. Marvel, snap a picture for Instagram to show off your culinary skills and enjoy.
It's really that easy to make. It tastes even better knowing that it's incredibly healthy for you too! Let me know if you end up making these!
