These gluten-free banana pancakes have the consistency of crepes. No flour, baking soda, or baking powder required.

Top with Greek yogurt, peanut butter, or fruit (fresh or simmered over low) as a healthier alternative to maple syrup.

Ingredients

1 ripe banana (medium to large)
2 eggs (egg beaters or egg whites if desired)
½ tsp vanilla
Cinnamon to taste

1. Preheat lightly greased skillet to medium heat.
2. Mash banana in bowl. It helps to mash it with your hands BEFORE peeling it.
3. Add eggs, vanilla and cinnamon and beat together.
4. Pour batter into skillet, using a spatula to spread it out into a thin layer. Cook for approximately 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.
