My Simple Banana Pancakes

Clean eating is often as simple as replacing the ingredients in our favorite recipes with ingredients that are simpler and more true to their most natural state. Banana pancakes are a favorite in my household so we make them a bit healthier. We replace refined white sugar with Sucanat, which is pure dried sugarcane juice. We replace refined white flour with whole wheat flour. Also instead of pancake syrup, which is mostly high fructose corn syrup, we use 100% pure maple syrup. Enjoy!!!


My Simple Banana Pancakes


Ingredients:

2 cups Whole wheat flour
1 tbsp Sucanat
2 1/2 cups 1% milk
1 mashed up ripe banana
Real Maple Syrup

Directions:

Coat skillet with organic cooking spray and heat on stove on medium heat.

In a mixing bowl, use a fork to mash up one medium sized ripe banana into a sauce like consistency. Add flour, Sucanat, and milk to banana sauce. Whisk all the ingredients together, until well blended.

Pour mixture into hot skillet forming a 8 inch round pancake, flip when batter is bubbling and edges formed. Remove when cooked though, repeat until batter is gone.

Drizzle maple syrup on pancakes as you serve.

Makes about 11 pancakes.
