Print Recipe

These fluffy almond flour banana pancakes are a quick, easy, and healthy breakfast option made with just five simple ingredients. Naturally gluten-free and low in sugar, they offer a moist, nutty, and delicious start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup (96g) finely ground almond flour
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon almond milk (to loosen batter if needed)

Instructions

  1. Mash the bananas in a mixing bowl with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with a few small lumps (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until pale and slightly frothy (about 1-2 minutes).
  3. Add almond flour and baking powder; stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. Test heat by sprinkling a few drops of water; if they dance and evaporate quickly, pan is ready.
  5. Lightly grease the skillet with butter or coconut oil. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet.
  6. Cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
  7. Flip carefully with a thin spatula and cook for another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Adjust heat if pancakes brown too fast.
  8. Serve warm with desired toppings such as fresh fruit, honey, maple syrup, or Greek yogurt.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and moisture. Preheat skillet fully before cooking to prevent sticking. Add a tablespoon of almond milk if batter is too thick. For vegan option, replace eggs with flax eggs (2 tbsp flaxseed meal + 6 tbsp water).
