Recipe: Too Easy Two-Ingredient Pancake
The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity and down-to-earth ingredients. When I stumbled upon the many variations of this gluten-free, grain-free and dairy-free pancake on Pinterest, I never expected them to taste so delicious and be so easy to prepare. It’s great for college students who might not have the disposable income to spend on a lot of ingredients or on-the-go adults who don’t have the time in the morning to prepare a healthy breakfast. The two ingredients are a banana and an egg, which form a great base and allow a lot of imagination in the types of spices and add-ins you want to use. I decided to go for cinnamon, nutmeg and pure maple syrup, but the options are limitless!

Great recipe! I actually prefer to use a blender, because I never have enough time in the morning-and it gives a very smooth texture.

I've been looking for a stupid easy breakfast that doesn't require getting up earlier. Breakfast isn't my meal and mornings aren't my thing - this may be the ticket!

My partner and I gave these a go this morning. I absolutely loved it, delicious! However, my partner disagreed. He hated the "eggy banana" tate. I didn't think it tasted like eggy banana at all, it was quite sweet tasting.

Try just egg whites for him, not whole egg?
