Description

Whole30 banana pancakes deliver a nutritious breakfast option for health-conscious eaters. Coconut flour and ripe bananas combine to create a delightful morning meal you’ll enjoy without guilt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) coconut flour
  • 1 tsp (5 g) baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Transform ripe bananas into a smooth puree using a fork or potato masher, ensuring a creamy consistency without lumps.
  2. Introduce eggs to the banana mixture, vigorously whisking to create a uniform, well-integrated batter.
  3. Sprinkle coconut flour, baking powder, and salt into the wet ingredients, gently folding until the dry elements are completely absorbed with no powdery patches.
  4. Prepare a non-stick skillet over medium heat (around 350°F), applying a light sheen of cooking oil if the surface seems dry.
  5. Ladle approximately 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, allowing it to spread naturally in the pan.
  6. Monitor the pancake surface for emerging bubbles, which typically appear within 2-3 minutes, indicating it’s time to flip.
  7. Carefully turn each pancake and cook the opposite side for an additional 1-2 minutes until achieving a golden-brown exterior.
  8. Transfer the finished pancakes to a serving plate, presenting them while warm and inviting complementary toppings for individual preference.

Notes

  • Banana ripeness matters most for natural sweetness and optimal pancake texture, so choose thoroughly speckled, soft bananas.
  • Whisking eggs thoroughly prevents clumpy batter and ensures smooth, consistent pancake structure.
  • Use a spatula with thin, flexible edges to flip pancakes gently without breaking delicate surfaces.
  • These pancakes work perfectly for meal prepping; store cooled pancakes in refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze between parchment paper layers.
