1. Prepare the Bananas
1
Step 1
Peel the bananas and cut them into thick slices so they blend more easily. Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best natural sweetness and texture.
2-Ingredient Flourless Banana Pancakes
These 2-Ingredient Flourless Banana Pancakes are made with only ripe bananas and egg whites. The batter comes together in seconds in a blender and cooks into soft, naturally sweet pancakes without flour or added sugar. Serve them with Greek yogurt, cream, fresh fruit or blueberry compote for a quick and easy breakfast.
