Description
These healthy apple banana pancakes are made in a blender with sliced apples and ripe bananas. They're gluten free, dairy free, fruit sweetened and paleo friendly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups chopped apple (180g)*
- 1 large, ripe banana (125g)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1/3 cup cassava flour (51g)
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat frying pan on medium-low heat. Grease with a little oil (I used coconut oil).
- Add apple, banana, eggs and oil to a blender. Blend, starting at a low speed and slowly increasing the speed until the ingredients are well blended.
- Add in the cassava flour, baking powder and salt. Blend again, starting at a low speed and increasing the speed until the batter has a smooth, consistent texture.
- Turn off the blender and let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes to thicken.
- Scoop 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the preheated and greased frying pan. Cover the pan with a lid and cook until bubbles form on top of the pancakes**
- Remove the lid and flip the pancakes. Cook a few minutes more, or until cooked through.
Notes
*I used a fuji apple, but any apple variety will work. No need to remove the skin.
**I always place a lid over my frying pan when cooking pancakes because it helps them cook more evenly. These pancakes take a little longer to cook than many other pancake recipes. You want them to cook at a lower temperature so that they cook through without burning on the bottom.
