Banana 'Pancakes'.....SOOO DELISH!! :D SO low calorie!

NikkisNewStart

We made these too - they were fabulous. I changed the recipe slightly since I am not going for super-low cal or low fat foods - I added one whole egg and one egg white to two overripe bananas, then added a sprinkle of whole-wheat flour and some baking powder to give them some additional binding and lift.

We served them with a home-made berry sauce - strawberries, blueberries and blackberries stewed with a dash of vanilla until they're liquified. Delicious and completely natural, no added sugar needed. I'll be making them again, for sure. Thanks!

Thanks for this recipe for the berry sauce! Going to try this tomorrow!

Just made these...

Epic...

SUCCESS!

I ground 1/4 cup oats, 1 tsp baking powder (I will reduce this greatly in the future because I watch sodium and I think I can get the same result w/ less) *Note- the oats and the baking powder were my additions- not the original posters*, some cinnamon, 1/3 cup egg whites, and 1/2 banana.

I used my mini blender and did the dry ingredients first, then the eggs and banana.

I made 6 mini pancakes and they set and cooked up round and fluffy just like a regular pancake.

I also made the berry syrup mentioned a few posters up... but had to add 1/2 pack of splenda b/c my berries were very tart.

It was delish! Lower cal, higher protein than my normal oatmeal with fruit breakfast.

I'm glad you liked the berry sauce too - its become our replacement for maple syrup and all its dodgy HFCS-laden substitutes. Occasionally I have to add about a teaspoon of brown sugar to it if the berries are still too sour after cooking, too. I figure that much sugar in about three cups of raw berries isn't too bad, but on the pancakes which are naturally so sweet I like the sourness to balance it.

The banana pancakes/berry sauce breakfast has happened three times already this week at my house. These things are a hit.

I made these this morning as posted and they were terrible. More like banana frittatas but a slimy consistency ::shudders:: and just not visually pleasing either. If you want to make these, I recommend you look through the comments and use the additions!

omg, i can't wait to make this. :happy: Why is everyone putting bump in a message? :indifferent:

When you type something in a forum it keeps it recorded in your my posts section. easy to find later. So people bump the topic. Its a common forum practice. Hope that helps.

Me again! I just had to share this recipe that was given to me.....for banana pancakes..I've had them several times this past week and they are DELISH!!!

All you need is.....

1/2 banana, mashed
1/3 C egg whites (about 2 large eggs, whites only)
sprinkle of cinnamon...
YES thats it people!!!

mix together, and 'fry' like you would a pancake......flip and repeat on other side....The ENTIRE recipe is between 100-110 calories!! Its sooooo delish

To top it off, I put a SMIDGE of Walden Farms calorie free syrup on top...juuuust enough to get a hint of syrup flavor!!

ENJOY!!! And PLEASE feel free to share your low calorie ideas!!

I will have to try this out , sounds yummy and I did not know there was a calorie free syrup .

Sounds so good it just became my first recipe since I'm a "newbie" on MFP! BTW...two egg whites shows up as a 1/4 cup instead of 1/3. I guess it depends on the size of the eggs. Do you think it'll make much difference if I use less egg white?

Bump! Love finding ways to use up the last banana as you race to beat it going brown!

I think if your pancakes turned out slimy, it means you didn't let them cook long enough.....the first time I made them I made this mistake...but after that, I left them on long enough to get golden brown.YUMMMMMMM.....a splash of sugar free syrup..DELISH!

Yum yum and yum. I made this for dinner tonight. Half mashed banana with about 1/5 cup oats and 1/3 cup liquid egg whites. Then topped with remainder of banana, 1 tablespoon pb, and 1/5 cup sf syrup. Less than 300 cams. Filling. Fast. Delicious. So having this again. Thanks for posting!
