Banana Pancakes for Breakfast and Weight Loss

  1. Prepare the dough:
    • In a bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.
    • Add the eggs and mix well until the mixture is smooth.
    • If desired, add vanilla extract, cinnamon and baking powder. Mix well.
  2. Cook the pancakes:
    • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little coconut oil or butter.
    • Pour a small amount of batter into the hot pan to form pancakes (about 2-3 tablespoons of batter per pancake).
    • Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look cooked through.
    • Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
  3. Serves:
    • Serve banana pancakes warm, topped with fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, or a sprinkle of chopped walnuts.

Suggestions:

  • Variety : You can add chopped walnuts, chia seeds or flax seeds to the batter for an extra nutrient boost.
  • Protein : To increase the protein content, add a spoonful of protein powder to the banana and egg mixture.
  • Storage : Pancakes can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for 2-3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.
  • Gluten-free version : This recipe is naturally gluten-free, as it contains no flour.

These banana pancakes are light, nutritious and easy to make, making them perfect for a healthy and tasty breakfast that supports your weight loss goals. Enjoy!
