Ingredients

For the pancakes:

  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • ½ cup whole grain buckwheat flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk

For topping (as desired):

  • Pure maple syrup, sliced bananas, peanut butter, etc.

Instructions

  1. Combine the mashed banana, buckwheat flour, and almond milk in a small bowl. Let sit for a few minutes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Grease with cooking spray or olive oil. Pour the batter into the skillet to form two pancakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, then remove to a plate and set aside. Repeat in batches until all batter is used.
  3. Serve with your desired toppings, like pure maple syrup, sliced bananas, peanut butter, or blueberries.

Recipe Notes

  • The banana used for this recipe should have brown spots; this will be easier to mash and lends sweetness to the pancakes.
  • Be sure to grease the pan between batches, otherwise pancakes may stick.
