Sugar-less, Flour-less, FAB-ulous Pancakes

So ~ the body has been flaking out on me for about 10 years now, give or take.

Ran into the brick wall of perimenopause about 5 years ago (things got really interesting), and I've been trying to make up for a lifetime of fair-to-middlin' nutritional choices, among other things.

All that to say, finding really tasty recipes that are also very healthy is a huge jackpot for me.  And if it's something my kids love?  Bonus.

Try these.  Hot, with some freezing cold natural applesauce piled on top.  No flour, no sugar!!  I found them on the Beauty That Moves blog.  Delish!

Blender Banana Oat Pancakes

Ingredients:

2 cups rolled oats

 

1 1/4 c. milk

(author called for nut or raw dairy;

I used some leftover almond milk)

 

1 ripe banana

 

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

 

1 Tbsp. maple syrup

 

1/2 tsp. sea salt

 

1 tsp. vanilla extract

 

2 tsp. baking powder

 

1 egg

 

butter or coconut oil for cooking

Directions:

Place all ingredients EXCEPT egg & cooking oil in blender and blend

until smooth.  Add egg & blend a few seconds more.

Let stand 10 minutes or longer to thicken batter.  If batter becomes too thick to pour easily, add some milk.  Cook on pancake griddle or in skillet.
