Hello friends– One of the best things about being retired is morning time–no quick cup of yogurt and rush out the door to school! So today after my early walk and email check, I indulged myself with pancakes, tea and a good book! Lazing over breakfast– it feels like I’m on a vacation!
This recipe is super easy and makes just three pancakes in about 10 minutes. Perfect for one quiet breakfast. They are custardy and light and really taste like banana. This could get to be a habit around here…
THREE INGREDIENT PANCAKES
1 ripe banana
1 egg
2 tab. whole wheat flour
Smash the banana into a bowl until it forms a thick paste. Beat in the egg until it’s well blended. Stir in the whole wheat flour to combine well.
Heat a griddle and spray with cooking spray. Pour three lovely pancakes from the batter bowl and cook about 2 minutes on each side. That’s it– so easy!
toppings: blueberries, pecans, yogurt, maple syrup– or anything! use your imagination– granola, banana, almonds, ricotta, peanut butter, crumbled bacon, honey, peaches, strawberries…
I haven’t tried this yet, because I can’t get my head around how these ingredients become pancakes. But I think I’m going to have to try it. These look so good!
I know! I saw just two tablespoons of flour and thought wouldn’t work! But the egg makes it hold together and the banana makes it sweet and custardy. Hope you like them!
I’m going to try making this for my husband tomorrow! He loves pancakes and I’m sure he’ll enjoy these!
Hi Daisy– Yep, they only make 3 –so when the grand girls come I’m going to try it quadrupled!! See how it goes! Happy breakfast!
OMG!! Really? These look amazing. Do you think they would hold together with another type of fruit? Say peaches?
Love that you are taking good care of yourself Rhonda. Blessings to you. ❤
Hey Debbie– I don’t think peaches would work the same– I don’t know. you could puree one and give it a try– only 10 minutes and 1 peach lost if it’s terrible!! Happy breakfast to you there whatever you’re eating!! xox
Thanks Rhonda! I think you’re right. Consistency wouldn’t quite be the same, huh? 🙂 Blessings and enjoy your breakfasts!
So delicious and healthy!!! I can’t wait to try this one.
Hey Jasmine– hope you like them! I got all the ingredients to make you meatballs and polenta– I’ll let you know how they come out! xo
These sound great. So easy. 🙂 I know what I’m making tomorrow for an after school treat. Could you just use all purpose white flour?
Yep, I’m sure either flour would be enough to bind it together. I just like that they were so quick! Happy pancakes to you there!! xox
Mmm, can’t wait, think I’ll make them this weekend! xo
Happy pancake eating! xo
Yum, thanks! Actually I’m going to make them today … I just need to get some berries for the top!
Hope you like them Miriam!! I thought they were a treat after days of my normal old yogurt and granola…
I made them yesterday when the kids got home from school. They were delicious, only problem was, they disappeared too quickly. Next time I’ll make a double batch. 🙂
Thanks Miriam! so fun to hear when someone actually makes a recipe! I’m so so glad you liked them. Hope you’re in the middle of a busy? relaxing? fun? weekend!! xox
So far so good Rhonda. It’s Sunday morning and I’ve just woken up here … quiet day ahead I think. Hope you’re enjoying yours. xo
What?? Wow! Yum! Done!
Hey Jenni- yep this may be dinner on nights when Larry is out.
Well, these certainly look easy, and I love anything with banana in it!
Me too Marica– I’m a banana fan– we eat lots of banana oatmeal pancakes around–family fave. Hope you’re doing well… hugs.
Hi Rhonda – just 3 pancakes? Perfect! I love all those recipes like one blueberry muffin or one mug of chocolate cake. This fits right in there with them – Kat
Hi Kat– haven’t seen one blueberry muffin or mug of chocolate cake! sounds intriguing with just two of us who shouldn’t has massive desserts on the counter. hope all’s well with you. xo
So eay, yet so tasty & inviring looking! Another wonderful easy pancake recipe for me to try out! MMMMMMMMM!
Hope you like them– we’re big pancake fans around here (sometimes for Sunday supper). hugs Sophie!!

I can try that. It’s easy enough. I have to make small ones for Lynton though. He is watch for the cab intake. I took a break of two years and now I’m back blogging and start over to have followers. The name of your theme is true to itself. 🙂 🙂
Miriam, how did I never hear you have a blog??!! I’m going right over to read it! What fun– so now you and Mary and I can compare blog notes on Monday nights! take care friend.. xox
I have not done anything for two years, so I didn’t have anything to tell you. When summer came along, it reminded me the my last blog was talking about my 5th anniversary of remission. I decided not to be a cry baby and write something to count my blessings. I am connecting with Mary today…so fun… yes, we can talk about our blogs on Monday nights…
So glad you’re back at it Miriam!!
I didn’t know from which point to come back, but eventually I just jumped in. I always like to write. I have read more of other people’s blogs. There are people who say so little but suffer greatly. I found two in one week.
I started following you yesterday.
