Banana pancakes with granola

November 18, 2017

Breakfast. Such a luxury these days when I grab an egg and box of something as I’m rushing out of the door to catch a bus. By the time its Saturday, I’m ready for real breakfast. I’m ready for pancakes. I make the world’s easiest pancakes since I’m such a bad cook, but they taste like pancakes should.

I’d like to say that the granola adds texture and depth (which I’m sure it does) but its my way of making sure of a wholesome meal, since these are flourless ‘cakes. Which means you can leave them alone if you prefer. But why not have two breakfasts in one?

Makes around three pancakes:

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ripe banana
  • some oil

Yes thats it! Mash the banana, crack in the egg and mix with the oil. Spray some oil onto a small pan, then spoon about three dollops of batter into the center. Cook for a couple of minutes or till golden before flipping the pancake over and doing the same for the other side.

Serve with the granola, plain yoghurt, blueberries, honey (my personal favourites) or whatever you’d like.

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh” said Piglet at last, “what’s the first thing you say to yourself?” “What’s for breakfast?” Said Pooh. “What do you say, Piglet?” “I say, I wonder what’s going to happen interesting today”, said Piglet. Pooh nodded thoughtfully. “Its the same thing”, he said.   -A.A Milne 

Now go get that Saturday, it will be Monday before you know it…
