Collagen Banana Pancakes (husband approved!)

I LOVE pancakes. I have experimented with so many different recipes, and I may just have found my favourite one!

The added bonus of collagen powder in these pancakes means so many extra health benefits! Collagen powder is tasteless, and a few of it’s health benefits are (if taken regularly):

Helps to improve skin moisture and elasticity, improves joint and bone health and recent studies are showing it is great for your gut health too.

This simple 6 ingredient recipe keeps your pancakes moist and tasty!!

Serves 2 hungry adults.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup plain flour
1 cup milk
1 large egg
1 banana (riper the better)
1Tbsp collagen powder
3tsp Stevia or 1Tbsp pure maple syrup for sweetness

Butter or olive oil for cooking

METHOD:

  1. Put all ingredients in to a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth.
  3. Heat up 1/2 cup water in a pan for cooking until it’s almost boiled.
  4. Tip out water and reduce heat to medium (step 3 and 4 are optional, I find I don’t burn my pancakes when I boil water in the pan first). Weird but it works.
  5. Pop a little butter in the pan and let melt, then add your pancake batter.
  6. Cook one side until bubbles appear, then flip for another 30secs or so.
  7. Top with maple syrup or honey, or whatever your heart desires!!
  8. ENJOY!
