In this post I’ll talk about two pancake recipes. One has seven ingredients, and one has only two, but they both have merit.<\/p>\n

So I love pancakes. I really enjoy the fluffy texture, sweet flavor, and crisp edges of a well-done pancake. I always choose to avoid mixes for the task because the from-scratch (I mean, I’m not stone grinding wheat or anything) recipe is so simple and easy to remember:<\/p>\n

Traditional Pancake Recipe<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • 1 cup flour<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp salt<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp baking powder<\/li>\n
  • 1 Tbsp sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1 egg, whisked<\/li>\n
  • 1 cup milk<\/li>\n
  • 1 Tbsp oil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Mix the ingredients in a medium bowl, cook a quarter cup of batter per cake in a lightly greased nonstick skillet over medium high heat until bubbles form, flip and cook through for another minute or until lightly browned on bottom. Ignore first batch’s sadness and failure.<\/p>\n

    Keep hot in a 200 degree\u00a0Fahrenheit toaster oven while cooking rest of batch.\u00a0Serve with real maple syrup.<\/p>\n

    Simple, right? (about 800 calories for the batch)\u00a0Well, it’s also delicious, but me being lazy, I decided\u00a0to try the no-flour alternative I had seen in a couple of places, where a ‘pancake’ is made with two ingredients.<\/p>\n

    Two ingredient no-flour pancakes<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • 2 eggs<\/li>\n
    • 1 banana, sliced<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Mix by hand if you dare, but a small food processor will make this far easier. Place into a 8-10 inch buttered skillet on medium heat. Cook until firm, flip and finish cooking. Serve with honey, peanut butter or fresh strawberries.<\/p>\n\n

      Although I do not have celiac disease, and don’t subscribe to a gluten-free nutritional lifestyle myself, this is gluten-free.<\/p>\n

      The 2 ingredient version is more of a sweet dessert tortilla than a pancake, but the texture, sweetness, and flavor are not far off. Maybe the best part is the 240 calories for the batch!<\/p>\n
