Ingredients

ripe banana 1, mashed
eggs 2, beaten
peanut butter 1 tbsp
spray olive oil
maple syrup (optional)

Method

Step 1

Mix the banana, eggs and peanut butter in a small blender and whizz until smooth. Heat a spray of oil in a non-stick pan on a medium heat, and drop spoonfuls of the batter into the pan. Cook for a few minutes before flipping. These will take longer to cook than a flour batter, and flip them confidently, as they won’t set on top like regular pancakes. Fry on the other side until golden and set. Serve with chopped banana and a drizzle of maple syrup, if you like.

*This recipe is gluten-free according to industry standards
