Healthy Pancakes

Good morning! I've been waiting for the weekend for what seemed like forever, and after stepping on the scale this morning and seeing more progress, I was specifically excited to treat myself to one of my newer favorite recipes: healthy banana pancakes. You've probably heard of "3 ingredient pancakes" from Pinterest, Buzzfeed, Vine, exc... and it's essentially an egg, a banana, and a sprinkle of cinnamon... but let's be real here for a sec... that's just banana flavored eggs. Gross. So yes, my healthy banana pancake recipe was derived from the "3 ingredient pancakes", but taste much better than fruit flavored scrambled eggs ;) Here's what you need for breakfast for 2:

-2 ripe bananas
-2 eggs
-less than 1/2 cup of flour
-1 tsp baking powder
-A splash of vanilla extract
-A sprinkle of cinnamon

It's pretty self explanatory-- you just mix it and make your pancakes so I'll let you take it from here ;) The part I like most about them is how low cal they are. The recipe makes 6 small pancakes (so splitting it with someone you each get 3) which ends up being a filling breakfast for under 300 calories. We put maple flavored Chobani greek yogurt and pecans on our pancakes this morning for extra protein and it was delicious. Don't skip breakfast! It's the most important meal of the day-- make it count.
