5 Ingredient Banana Pancakes. But where they differ is texture. These are fluffy, and I mean FLUFFY. Traditional banana egg pancakes are closer to a crepe in my opinion — flat and a bit more chewy (a texture I'm not exactly feening for).
Ingredients of 5 Ingredient Banana Pancakes
- Prepare 1 of ripe banana.
- Prepare 2 large of eggs.
- You need 1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon.
- You need 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries.
- You need 1/4 cup of wheat germ.
Meanwhile, add your banana to a medium mixing bowl and mash with the back of a fork until a thick paste is formed. Add remaining ingredients to the bowls and mix gently until well combined. Optional toppings: sliced banana, lite pancake syrup. I have found that by measuring the dry ingredients and then putting them through a shifter makes for fluffy pancakes.
