2-Ingredient Wheat-Free Banana Pancakes (Paleo)

  3.5 – 43 reviews  • Banana Pancake Recipes

While traditionally coulis is thickened by simmering in its own juices, I chose to use cornstarch to hasten the process. Just a little of orange flavor is added by the Grand Marnier®. This goes well with cheesecake, yogurt, or ice cream when drizzled with it.

Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 5 mins
Total Time: 10 mins
Servings: 1
Yield: 2 standard pancakes

Ingredients

  1. 1 teaspoon butter
  2. 1 large banana, broken into chunks
  3. 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat; add butter.
  2. Mash banana chunks in a bowl using a fork until it becomes a wet consistency. Add egg and whisk mixture until batter is smooth.
  3. Drop batter into the hot butter to make 2 pancakes. Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes.
  4. This recipe doubles easily.
  5. Frying the pancakes in butter creates nice crispy edges.
  6. Substitute 1 tablespoon coconut oil for the butter, if desired.

Very egg-y. Would add some sort of flower if I made it again.
Andrew Bryant
It was good I made it before school, so I think it took a little longer. If you make it egg free use 1/2 cups of applesauce and flour I don’t know how much because I used my hands, but it turned out delicious. My little sister loved it.
Austin Reeves
I did not like this recipe. It sounds very easy to make and it should be; however, it isn’t easy to cook and it is doesn’t taste as good as it sounds
Sarah Meza
Tasted like scrambled eggs with banana and I added cinnamon
Edgar Guzman
Really nice
Charles Johnson
These were good. Not very pretty but tasty. I added a pinch of salt and some vanilla. They’re also good reheated in a frypan the following day.
Paul Walsh
I tasted like a good morning banana bread.
Andrew Mann
yeah, it was pretty bad. it might taste like a real pancake if you’ve never had pancakes before.
Courtney Campbell
perfect! Quick and easy. Great for a school day. I didn’t add anthing and my boys, 8 and 3 gobbled them up!
John Young
A good (whole 30 approved) alternative to the real thing, and they are super easy.
Abigail Smith
No changes this time. Will absolutely make it many more times.
Jessica Rodriguez
I make these all the time. I use 2 eggs to 1 banana and sometimes add a dash of cinnamon. They need nothing more. I make extra and keep them in fridge for a quick and healthy b’fast.
Teresa Cox
I made it with three bananas three eggs a dash of cinnamon and had to add brown rice flour to thicken it. I used coconut oil instead of butter. But I was very pleasantly surprised. They taste wonderful.
Brandy Morris
It doesn’t really taste like pancakes, but it’s pretty tasty. It has a bad habit of breaking apart.
Michael Evans PhD
This had a crepe texture, not a pancake texture. I had high hopes, but it fell short in my book.
Alexa Tran
My brother and I tried this recipe three times. The first time I just did 1 pancake, which worked alright. But the more in one batch we tried to make, the more downhill it went. I think this is great if you are just making it for yourself, but if you want to feed a crowd with it, its a might more complicated. We had to add Gluten Free flour to the batch to help it stay together in the pan. After that point it was pretty good, but it could definitely still use improvement.
Steven Hale
Didn’t cook all the way through. Burnt on the outside and gooey on the inside. Nasty.
Jordan Martin
I know some people like these, and it’s not the recipe’s fault that my taste buds just don’t. I keep trying these recipes out thinking that I’m doing something wrong. In the past, they have burned, undercooked and fallen apart. I decided to try one more time after watching the video for this recipe. I found that I have to cook on medium low heat 3 min on first side and 2 min on the other for them not to burn and to cook all the way through. Even when they cook well, I just don’t like the texture. I almost think they would be better cooked as scrambled eggs.

terrible

You may add what you like along with your pancake batter,including rasins,crushed cereal or cornflakes,of even peanut butter or nutella.
Dana Nelson
Good recipe, as a foundation. I added cinnamon, vanilla and almond flour. My family loved them. I felt it needed a pinch of salt.
