So you really have to use regular sugar? What about splenda? I wonder if I can use whole wheat pancake mix as I don't have whole wheat flour...may have to try it and let you know.
Thanks Jo - I'm trying this tomorrow for breakfast. Sounds like a winner to me!
here is the other recipe I was talking about- it too is very yummy- large enough to cut in 4 for a nice treat-Johanna

Ummm…Seriously Dying!! Two Ingredient Pancakes…Gluten Free, Flourless, & Full of Protein
Are you kidding me?! This recipe is ridiculous. A real LOL. Like, I’m never.ever.ever. making real pancakes again.
Lately this mashed banana + egg recipe has been blowing up the fitness/health blogs [ one lovely reader also recommended this to me + Blogilates + The Fitness Dish ]. For ****s & giggles, I added my own touches: a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, some ground flaxseed, a bit of vanilla, & a dash of cinnamon. But honestly, just the two measly ingredients of bananas & egg are perfection.
Ok. Let’s talk syrup. Buying low-sugar syrup does not equal healthy. In fact, filling your bod with fake sugars is bloating, makes you crave/eat more, & is full of disgusting, sick-o chemicals. If you love syrup on silver dollllllas, choose all-natural maple syrup & use it sparingly. Drenching them until they’re wilted is gross. I mean, is it necessary to have a side of pancakes with your syrup? Nope! Use a little & move on.
Happy Tuesday!

The Skinny, Skinny Pancake
{ Serves 2-3 }
1 mashed, super ripe banana
2 eggs
Oil for the pan [ EVOO or coconut oil is my pref ]
My additions: a bit of pumpkin pie spice, 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed [ this really, really holds the mixture together ], a bit of vanilla, & a dash of cinnamon.
Optional: all-natural maple syrup + berries
+ Directions: mash your banana with a fork. In another bowl whisk eggs. Mix eggs & banana together. Add my additions. Put your choice of oil on a pan [ low-medium heat ]. Add a silver dollar-sized amount to the pan. Let the cake set for 30 seconds [ or when the center bubbles ] & flip it! Enjoy with berries & a bit of syrup. Option: if you’re pressed for time use a blender to mix your ingredients.
That is awesome...so excited for you...I am a week and 4 days...feeling and doing good!!!
All the best and good luck.
Kim
Bring on the OPTI!
