Our healthy 2 Ingredient Banana Pancake recipe is so easy to make and tastes delicious! These banana and egg pancakes are an easy protein filled breakfast recipe that you and your family will love!

We all love the memories that happen while enjoying pancakes on the weekend or slower moving weekday mornings. Next time you are in the kitchen looking for a new breakfast recipe, I hope you’ll try some more favorites: Banana Oatmeal Bars, Egg Free Pancakes, or this French Toast Casserole.

Ingredients:

Ripe banana: A medium to large banana is perfect for this recipe. You are looking for a really ripe banana – not one that has only been on your counter for a day or two. The bananas that you’ve been looking at on your countertops for days are best for cooking with.
Egg: Medium or large eggs will do. (Yes, this really only has 2-ingredients. Isn’t that just bananas!)

How to Make These Banana Pancakes:

In a medium sized bowl, mash the banana.
Add an egg to the mashed banana and mix until combined. I use a whisk to mix them together. If you’d like, you can add 1/4 tsp of baking powder to make them rise a bit. Once the ingredients are combined your pancake mixture is ready to cook.
Set a greased pan or skillet on the stove at medium heat.
When the pan is heated, add the pancake batter. (There are a few important recipe tips below to help you cook these.)
When the first side has cooked, carefully flip the pancake to the second side. Cook the other side until golden brown. Serve immediately.
Top with peanut butter (my favorite!), a teaspoon of butter, or nothing at all–these banana egg pancakes are super moist and delicious as is!

Recipe Tips

If you want to add cinnamon, don’t sprinkle these with cinnamon while cooking. I’ve found that whisking the cinnamon into the recipe before cooking or sprinkling cinnamon after it’s finished cooking is best–when topping them with cinnamon while cooking, the cinnamon sticks to the pan and causes it to not flip easily.
Use the thin spatula that you have for these! They are perfectly sized for small pancakes.
I don’t recommend adding chocolate chips to these, as they like to stick to the pan.
Start with small pancakes (think toddler pancakes when planning out the size) – they’re easier to flip.
Store any remaining cooked pancakes in an airtight container. However, the pancakes are much more delicious when fresh.

Healthy Eating Plans

On the 21 Day Fix/Ultimate Portion Fix, 1 banana + 1 egg = 2 purple containers and 1/2 red container (and don’t forget to count your toppings!). These amounts are for the simple and easy 21 Day Fix banana pancake recipe.
