Banana Cornmeal Pancakes

20121225-192943.jpg

So, if you look up flour-less recipes on the Internet, you’ll come across a really cool one that calls for two mashes bananas, two eggs all mixed up and cooked in a skillet like pancakes. Surprisingly, despite the very runny liquid egg mixture, they “pancake up” pretty well and with syrup, tastes almost like bananas foster.

However, if you want to add a bit of nutrition and density, add 1/4 cup brown rice flour (or regular rice flour) and 1/4 cup white or yellow cornmeal. Top with chopped walnuts or peanut butter or whatever makes you happier about your breakfast. Kid ate these as is and was very happy. I think I’ll add a tsp of gluten-free vanilla extract next time.

  1. I tried the banana and egg version and found that it was kind of weird textured, almost like a banana omelet rather than a pancake. I think adding the corn meal or flour of some kind would give it more of a pancake consistency. Let me know how it works!

  2. Yeah, you have to get used to some different textures on this diet. That is why I added the cornmeal. I tried this again using some sorghum flour, tapioca starch and xantham gum and it was “too” tender. I have to fiddle with a breadier version a tad more before I post.
