Who doesn’t love pancakes?! But after a few bites of normal pancakes, I usually feel sick and they can even leave me feeling lethargic hours after I have them. But these banana pancakes don’t make me feel that way at all! These pancakes are incredibly delicious and have a good hearty texture.  They have a great balance of complex carbs, protein, and fats instead of simple carbohydrates that cause instant spikes in blood sugar. Because these pancakes are low glycemic you won’t feel that post pancake crash – and are perfect for any time of the day.

They taste like a lot like  banana bread – only better. These fuel-loaded pancakes ROCK. This recipe is essentially an elaboration on a 2-ingredient (banana and egg) pancake recipe. I enhanced the recipe with some more spices and some chia and oats to make them a bit more substantial. They actually fill me up and keep me full until my next meal (which is rare). My friends love these pancakes so much and I constantly have to convince people that I didn’t add any extra sugar!
