2 Ingredient Pancakes

5/21/2014

8 Comments

 
   These pancakes are a marvel! Gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, but really so good.
   When I first heard of them I thought, "yuk, sounds like a banana omelette!", but because I am me, I had to try them, and I was quite pleasantly surprised. Indeed indeed.

2 Ingredient Pancakes

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder (optional, and obviously makes these not 2 ingredient anymore!) This just gives the pancakes a bit more poof (or puff, whichever you want to call it)
  • A touch of oil or butter (for the pan)
  • You can also add some cinnamon or vanilla if you want (again, making these not 2 ingredient anymore!)


Method:
 
  1. Heat a skillet to medium high heat
  2. In a small bowl mash the banana up with a fork.
  3. Add the egg, and mix them well together (if you use some baking powder, add it now, and make sure it blends in really well!)
  4. When the pan is hot, add roughly half of a 1/4 cup (about 2 tablespoons) of batter per pancake (don't overcrowd your pan), and when the bottom has set (that should only take 1 minute at the longest) flip 'em over and cook for another minute (or less)!

   So, this may gross some of you out, but the day I made these to take pics for the blog, some McDonalds coupons showed up in the mail. I saw a picture for their McGriddle (basically a pancake with syrup right in it, made into a breakfast sandwich), and it gave me fond memories. When I was pregnant with my first, I loved those darned nasty things!!! 
   Anyway, seeing the picture made me go, "...mmm, I kinda want something like that....but not really". During the week I eat 'clean'; just fruits and veggies, meats, nuts and seeds. But I thought, ya know, I'm going to try these pancakes as "bread" for a breakfast sandwich (well, I ate it for dinner...). All that to say that I made it, I ate it, I loved it! I added a splash of Franks Red Hot, and it was deee-lish! I didn't have any tomatoes (booo), but the egg, bacon, and lettuce were scrumptious!

   So, that's all I've got to say about the 2 ingredient pancake! Oh wait, that's not true! These are great as leftovers (in an airtight container in the fridge), and make a great snack cold with some nut butter spread on 'em. 
   O.k, now I'm done!

We also recently tried this recipe. They was awesome with berry syrup on them. The kids kept asking for more even after they were all gone!

My kids love these too. Do you add anything extra to yours (baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla?) I've never had them with berry syrup, but that would be deeee-lish.

These are my favourite pancakes! Seriously! I told my Mom about them and she said, "well isn't that just a banana omelette?" PS - Eggs are dairy :)

Yup, a banana omelette, just what I thought first, but these are lovely! She's a banana omelette for not trying them! ;) And eggs are not dairy....it's a common misconception though. Both milk and eggs are animal by-products, but not both dairy products. A true dairy product is made by the mammary glads of a mammal (cows, goats, sheep).

When I was pregnant, I wanted nothing to do with McDonald's! Normally I loved it. Funny eh?
Can't wait to try this recipe. I love recipes that dont't have many ingredients.

That is funny...unfortunately, I love McDonalds most of the time, just not their McGriddle. :) Anyway, I hope you do get a chance to try this crazy simple recipe!
