Banana bread

Banana bread pancakes

I'm still on my pancake mission

3 egg whites
2TB. oat bran
1 TB. Bob's apple cinnamon hot cereal
1 TB. quick cook oats
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
dash salt
splash of almond milk
1/4 of a banana smashed
mix together
cook on both sides in a non stick pan

Topped with
almond flax butter
sliced banana
sliced raw almonds
dark chocolate chips
small drizzle of pure maple syrup

These pancakes smelled and tasted like banana bread. I think they could have used 1 or 2 TB. of whole wheat pastry flour to thicken them up a bit, with the addition of the smashed banana. With a few changes I would make these again.

Granola pancake

I tried a new pancake combo today. It wasn't as good as yesterday's, but I added more baking soda and it made it more fluffy, which I liked. It got a little too toasty on both sides, but still tasted good. I added granola hoping it would add a nice texture, but it didn't really stand out in the pancake.

3 egg whites
2 TB. oat bran
1 TB. quick cook oats
2 TB. Tj's low fat mixed berry granola
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
splash almond milk (were trying it out for the first time)
mix together
cook in non skillet pan on both sides (on low)
topped with
almond flax butter
Crofter's apricot all fruit spread
warmed up pear sauce

Oatmeal pancakes

This morning I made a variation of my protein pancakes. I used oats and less buckwheat mix. It wasn't as good as the buckwheat pancakes but I still liked it. It didn't hold together as well, and was flatter and bigger than the others.

1 TB. buckwheat pancake mix
1/4 cup quick cook oats
cinnamon
mix together
cook in a non stick skillet on both sides
topped with
1 strawberry and 1 kiwi (the fruit on top was so good)

Banana protein pancakes

Did anyone watch Food Revolution last night, wow? I'm so glad I don't eat chicken nuggets. It's so sad what kids are being fed, and how they are being taught about food. Kids are fed the most processed unhealthy food's. As they grew into an adult those habits carry with them, and that's why we have such a problem with obesity. I can't wait for next week's episode when they focus on teenagers.


I had an amazing cup of Mighty Leaf tea today, I love this stuff.

I made some banana protein pancakes for Jeff and I this morning. They are so filling and so healthy, the prefect breakfast. They are also quick and easy to make.
