Is that I have time to make these! Quick ‘n Easy Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes. I found this recipe on Green Lite Bites about a year ago and they have become a regular part of my Saturday morning routine.

 

You will need:

1 large overripe banana

1 egg

½ cup milk (I use vanilla soy)

½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp ground nutmeg

¾ cup whole wheat flour

 

First, mash the banana:

 

Then, whisk with milk and egg until frothy:

 

Mix together dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg):

 

Combine wet and dry ingredients just until incorporated:

 

Pour batter in a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Cook about 1-2 minutes a side, small bubbles will form but not as many as traditional pancakes. Peak underneath for a light brown color, then flip!

Top with whatever you like- my fave it peanut butter, fresh banana, a little cinnamon, and a little syrup:

Recipe makes 6 medium-sized or 9 small pancakes (3 medium shown above).

 

No better way to start the weekend!
