Easiest pancake recipe ever!

In my opinion and in yours when you try these for yourself you will probably agree that they are the easiest and quickest home made pancake recipe ever..





 To make these pancakes you probably already have the items in your kitchen. You need 2 main ingredients;

.1 egg 
.1 medium- large banana

you will also need some oil to cook them in, i use fry light because it's free on slimming world.

Now to top the pancake i have used another banana sliced up and 1 tsp of icing sugar sprinkled over the plate, covering the pancakes and banana. It was delicious, made the banana pieces really sweet. lovely.

So what you need to do and this is so simple and easy- peel your banana, place it on a small plate, get a fork and mash it up. 

(If you have an over ripened banana, i would use that as its much sweeter and much easier to mash up.) 

Once that is all mushed up, crack an egg onto the banana and mix it together with the fork (it is probably much easier to transfer the banana to a bowl for this step) and Once it is all mixed nicely then it's time to cook.

Heat your pan over a low-medium heat and put the oil of your choice into your pan to warm up. You only need a drop and if it's the fry light, a spray or two.

using a big spoon, place 3 spoonfuls of the pancake batter into the pan and move the pan around to evenly spread the batter. These pancakes are only small so they are much easier to flip and you can stack them on your plate and it looks like you have lots more :). Cook for a couple of minutes on each side- You will know when they are done. Then pop them on your plate and keep going till all the batter is gone and then serve them with your choice of toppings. Honey is lovely on these pancakes with blueberries!! I was just using what i had to hand but maple syrup, even golden syrup or just like i did icing sugar, they are all lovely on these pancakes and these pancakes are sweet enough anyway so lots of berries on them alone will be enough.

This recipe is for 1 person and depending on how many spoonfuls of mixture i do i can get between 4-6 pancakes.

Now for slimming world viewers, I had no idea they syn the banana here because it's mashed up, im sure i read somewhere that 100g of mashed and cooked banana is something silly like 8 syns because of the sugars, I must admit i do not syn my pancakes and i have spoken to a few other members on facebook who do not either and they have still lost weight each week, some members have lost over 3st and they still eat these most days without syning them. So if you want to make them, just make smart decisions, think about what you can put on them that is free and if not make sure you syn accordingly, but most importantly.. ENJOY!!!!
