Hello everyone!
My name is Sarah and I love finding new ways to make healthy things delicious. It can be so easy to get stuck in the mundane routine of cooking the same foods week after week. Let me tell you, chicken and veggies all the time gets old REAL QUICK. Sometimes all you need is a little bit of exciting visuals and a new recipe to kickstart you back into a healthy lifestyle. My love for health and cooking is why I wanted to make this blog. If just one person can benefit or enjoy the recipes I make along the way, I will be one very happy gal. Enjoy! 🙂
Today I am including a pancake recipe that is only six ingredients. I absolutely love simple recipes that make for a mouth watering meal and this is one of them. Whenever I am craving pancakes I like to whip up this simple little concoction. It is SO YUMMY and the best part is that it takes only five minutes to put together.
Ingredients:
1 banana
1/3 cup of oats
3/4 scoop of Juice Plus French Vanilla Complete (or whatever whole food based shake mix you prefer)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1tbs stevia
Few dashes of cinnamon
I first mash up a banana using a fork in a bowl. I then stir in the oats, vanilla extract, stevia, and cinnamon. Lastly I add the Juice Plus Complete mix into it. This is my favorite because it’s made from Whole Foods and naturally sweetened, but you can use whatever protein powder of your choosing! Once all the ingredients are combined I melt a tsp of coconut oil on my skillet and then add the pancake batter by about thirds. You will know it’s ready to flip when the outside starts to brown.
To top this all off, I love to mash together maple syrup with all natural almond butter (or your favorite nut butter.) It makes for a delicious nutty topping, and it is always paired well with an extra banana or your favorite fruit on top! If you’re feeling extra fancy you can add my favorite pancake topping of all- whipped cream, YUM. These ingredients make about three good sized pancakes and will definitely fill you up. I hope you all enjoy this yummy treat!
Happy healthy cooking! ❤️
