Why You'll Love These Banana Pancakes
Unlike many pancake recipes that rely on flour and sugar, these gluten-free banana pancakes are made from simple whole-food ingredients you probably already have sitting in your kitchen.
They're:
Naturally gluten-free
No added sugar
Ready in around 10 minutes
Kid-friendly
Great for meal prep
Made with only 3 ingredients
A delicious healthy breakfast or snack
Because they're naturally sweetened with banana, they satisfy sweet cravings while still providing protein and important nutrients to keep you feeling fuller for longer.
Ingredients:
1 medium banana (ripe, peeled)
2 large eggs, whisked
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp butter (to grease the pan)
How To Make 3 Ingredient Banana Pancakes:
Mash the banana in a bowl until most lumps are well mashed.
Add the whisked eggs, and stir to combine.
Add the baking powder and mix through.
Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat.
Add 1/4 cup pancake mixture to the pan, per pancake.
Allow bubbles to form and pop on top of the pancake before flipping over (be careful with this, see video for how to flip the pancakes without them breaking). Cook until golden brown on both sides.
Stack cooked pancakes on a plate and top with maple syrup (the real stuff!), sliced banana + Greek yoghurt

How To Make These Pancakes Higher In Protein
One thing I teach my clients is that breakfast sets the tone for your entire day. Starting your morning with enough protein can help support:
More stable energy
Better blood sugar control
Reduced afternoon cravings
Feeling fuller for longer
Although these pancakes contain protein from the eggs, there are plenty of easy ways to boost the protein content even further.
Try serving them with:
Greek yoghurt
Cottage cheese
A scoop of vanilla protein yoghurt
Collagen stirred into coconut yoghurt
A protein smoothie on the side
Nut butter for healthy fats and extra satiety
If you're working on improving your metabolism, balancing hormones or losing weight without restrictive dieting, increasing your protein intake is one of the simplest changes you can make.
