Whip up some light and fluffy gluten-free pancakes with this easy almond flour and banana batter. Add a light smear of peanut butter for an extra protein boost.
Ingredients
-
4 large eggs, separated
-
2 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
-
1 cup almond flour
-
3 Tbsp coconut flour
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
-
1/8 tsp salt
-
2 Tbsp peanut butter
-
1/2 cup fresh blueberries, for garnish
-
1/2 cup fresh raspberries, for garnish
-
1/8 tsp confectioners’ sugar, for garnish
Preparation
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, bananas, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a separate large bowl using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter until evenly combined.
- Lightly coat a griddle with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. For each pancake, pour about 1/4-cup batter onto the pan, spreading it out evenly. Cook, turning once, until both sides are lightly golden.
- With a small star-shaped cookie cutter, cut star shapes out of 1 pancake. Smear peanut butter on pancakes and garnish with blueberries, raspberries, confectioners’ sugar and star-shaped pancake pieces, if desired.
