These gluten free pancakes are super simple to throw together on a busy morning. They’re particularly good if you have overripe bananas that need to be used. And if you want to get excited about eating bananas, check out this article on all the amazing health benefits of bananas. They are full of fiber and protein, and the bananas give them a good dose of potassium and magnesium, as well as natural sweetness. My boys love these! You really don’t need syrup because of the bananas. Try topping with organic butter, coconut oil, fresh strawberries, or a dash of cinnamon. You could also try sprinkling ground flaxseed for an extra boost of fiber and omega 3 fats. It’s time to give your pancakes a healthy, happy makeover!

This works well without the expensive gf flour….just beat two eggs with a banana and cook as normal pancakes!
Hey Rachel! Yes, these are definitely good with just the eggs and banana. I like my pancakes a little thicker, so I like to add the GF flour. Buying in bulk helps with the cost of the flour, and you can find this flour very cheap at Big Lots too.
