Strawberry Banana Pancakes
I don't know about you, but I love the classic combo of strawberry and banana.... So today I whipped up some healthy Strawberry Banana Pancakes! These pancakes are super fluffy, high in protein and pair great with a variety of toppings! These are so delicious, they're like eating desert for breakfast! You would never guess these are 100% clean! The taste sort of reminds of strawberry birthday cake...Can you say yum?!
I was hoping the pancakes would turn out a pretty pink color, like the batter, but they turn a light golden brown once cooked.. :( But that's ok! They are still bursting with strawberry flavor!Strawberry Banana Pancakes:
(Makes 1 serving)
1/2 a mashed banana 1/2 cup fresh or frozen strawberries1/4 cup egg whites1 scoop Protein Powder (I use Perfect Fit)1/4 cup old fashioned oats1 Tbs. coconut flour1/4 tsp. baking soda1/2 tsp. stevia 2 Tbs. almond milk (add more if batter is too thick)Combine all ingredients in a food processor. I like to add a few ingredients at a time so the food processor isn't too full, but it's up to you. (so add fruit, blend, add eggs and protein, blend and so on.)Spray a non stick pan with coconut oil cooking spray and cook on medium heat for a few minutes each side. I made five mini pancakes, but you could make them larger.Nutrition Facts for JUST the pancakes (not including any toppings):285 cals, 27 g protein, 43 g carbs, 3 g fatNow time top them!!!!! I layered mine with the other half of my banana and Peanut Butter and Co. Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter! Perfect combo! Quick tip: If you like your peanut butter extra gooey so you can drizzle it like icing, microwave it for 10 seconds!
These would also be great topped with extra fresh strawberries, a homemade strawberry compote, almond butter, walnuts... the options are endless! So have fun! If you make this recipe, post a picture on Instagram and tag me @beautyandbananas!

These decadent pancakes are super fluffy, mega yummy coco-nutty and bursting with melty chocolate chips! Mmm mmm.. just the way I like it! Coconut Chocolate Chip Protein Pancakes:1/2 a mashed banana1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I use Perfect Fit: http://perfectfitprotein.com/)1 Tbs. ground flaxseed 1 Tbs. coconut flour (key for the coconut flavor)1/2 cup egg whites2 Tbs. almond milkdash of cinnamon1/4 tsp. baking soda1 Tbs. organic dark chocolate chips1 Tbs. coconut flakes (or shredded coconut)
Mash banana then combine all remaining ingredients except for chocolate chips and coconut flakes. Mix well. Spray pan with coconut oil spray and pour batter in pan. Drop in chocolate chips and cook for a few minutes each side. You can make one jumbo pancake, 2 medium, or several minis! Whatever your little pancake lovin heart desires! ;)340 calories, 31 grams proteinFeel free to tweak the recipe- If you don't have flaxseed for example, add an extra Tbs. of coconut flour. No mashed banana? Try apple sauce, or leave it out completely!
