Banana Egg Pancakes

These are the simplest little pancakes. They are super quick to make and can be made just the right size for tiny hands.

The basic recipe contains just two ingredients – egg and banana!

These are a favorite breakfast of mine with some blueberries and a little cinnamon.

The egg provides an easy source of high-quality protein to support strong growing bodies, keeping glucose levels (& mood) stable.  Eggs also provide omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, phosphorus, folate, vitamins E and D as well as choline, essential for brain and nervous system health.

Bananas fuel your little eater with plenty of fiber, B vitamins and minerals such as manganese, iron, magnesium and potassium.  Plus, they are yummy and sweet!

Try these for breakfast, mid-morning snack, after school, or anytime.
