Pancakes for breakfast
This morning I whipped up my own banana pancakes. Getting quite proud of the fact that I don't need a recipe anymore to come up with pancakes that turn out ok!
Thick banana pancakes for 2 (makes about 10 pancakes):
- 2 eggs
- 1 banana
- 1 tbsp flax seed
- ½ deciliter oats
- ½ deciliter rye flour
- 1 deciliter dinkel flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- a little bit of salt
- 1 tbsp butter
Mix all ingredients together with a rod mixer (so easy and quick!). Heat a pan and put half a tablespoon of butter in it. Spoon up about 5 pancakes into the pan and fry on each side for about 1½ minute. Repeat once more. Tadaa! I served it with fresh pineapple and a little but of reduced sugar strawberry jam.
Approximate calories per 1 serving (5 pancakes): 350. With pineapple and jam - about 430. The eggs provide as a good source of protein, banana and pineapple with vitamins, minerals and healthy sugars, and the flours and oats reduce the glycemic index, keeping blood sugar more steady. A good breakfast.
The fiancé really appreciated these, but next time I will only put ½ deciliter of dinkel flour in, to reduce calories and make them a little softer. They were very filling though, and I'm sure we will both last until lunch without having to snack in between!
