I have discovered this way of making pancakes that satisfies my longing for carbs/wheat in a morning without having much in them.

Makes two big pancakes (yes, I eat them both):

I egg
I egg white
1/2 a banana
tablespoon of ground almonds
tiny pinch of salt
few drops of vanilla essence and/or sprinkle of cinnamon

Whizz it all up in a blender, then pour into a hot pan (either non-stick if you're fat cutting, though I smear with coconut oil). Swirl round the pan until set on top then flip or turn and cook other side, like normal pancakes (these are English rather than American style pancakes)

I serve with a blob of 0%fat Greek Yoghurt and some fresh blueberries but they would go with most fruit or even some lean grilled bacon!

    Did you forget a key ingredient, like flour?

    Nope. No flour needed (the ground almonds work as a binder) making them great for low carb and gluten free diets! You won't even notice the flour missing (these are more European-style 'crepes' than American pancakes).

    I've added the recipe to the database as Emma's low-carb pancakes if anyone wants the calories and nutrition.

    Hope you enjoy them!
