Moist and fluffy whole wheat banana pancakes make for a healthy breakfast and a great way to start the day!

Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes by The BakerMama

Y’all, these pancakes are perfect in every way! They’re healthy, hearty, flavorful, moist, fluffy, and oh so yummy!

Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes by The BakerMama

We make them at least once a week and I usually double the batch so we have leftovers to eat for a few days thereafter. We can’t get enough of them! We’ll actually eat them for breakfast the morning I make them and sometimes again for lunch that very same day! 😉 Oh, and stay tuned, because next week I’ll be sharing one of our absolute favorite ways to use some of the leftover pancakes for lunch or a snack. It’ll be life-changing, I promise! 😉

Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes by The BakerMama

These delicious pancakes are bursting with bananas and have no butter or oil and very little sugar. And they’re still so tasty, you don’t even need syrup, but pancakes just seem naked without syrup, so I always like a little drizzle. 🙂 My boys actually gobble them up without syrup and I’m always thankful to avoid the sticky mess and potential sugar high.

If you’re looking for a great go-to pancake recipe that you could seriously memorize and make for your family even on the busiest of mornings, then these are for you! They’re so easy to mix together and before you know it, you’ll have a plate full of healthy, hearty pancakes that’ll make your whole family happy and ready to take on the day!

Description

Moist and fluffy whole wheat banana pancakes make for a healthy breakfast and a great way to start the day!


Ingredients

  • 1–1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 1–1/4 cups skim milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup mashed ripe banana (about 2 bananas)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar and baking powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until well combined. Fold in the mashed bananas.
  2. Heat griddle over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray. Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto heated griddle. Cook until batter starts to bubble a bit on top and the bottom is evenly browned. Flip and cook until both sides are lightly browned. Remove to a baking sheet and place baking sheet in a warm oven while you cook the rest of the batter.
  3. Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired. Store in an resealable baggie in the refrigerator and reheat in the toaster like you would when you toast bread.

      Hi Asher! Yes, you can replace the egg with an additional mashed banana. They might not be as fluffy, but they’ll still taste great. Enjoy!

    I literally dreamt of banana pancakes last night! So here I am! Ha! Can you please tell me- is there a subsusture I can use for the milk?

    Reply
    • Maegan says

      May 9, 2019 at 2:24 pm

      Hi Tess! You could try substituting the 1-1/4 cups milk with 1 cup water plus 2-3 tablespoons melted butter. You could also try any alternate milk like almond milk. Hope this helps. Enjoy!

    Hey I just found this recipe (7/2020). It was AMAZING! I substituted almond milk for the skim and added a dash of cinnamon. Really tasty. I scooped mine and got 8 large pancakes. 2 pancakes = 212 calories perfect fit and treat for my diet.

    I even replaced milk with half water half milk and added a dash of cinnamon, still it turned out fluffy.

    Thanks for the share!

Ingredients:

4 ready-to-bake pie crusts
3 (20 oz) cans cherry pie filling
1 (20 oz) can blueberry pie filling
1 egg
1 tbsp water
2 tbsp sparkling sugar

Instructions:

1. Let the pie crusts set out at room temperature for 10 min before using.
2. Spray a 12” x 17” rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
3. Using 3 of the pie crusts, fill the baking sheet completely with the dough. Cut the dough as necessary to cover the sheet pan.
4. Trim the dough even with the edge of the sheet pan and flute the edges.
5. Cut the excess dough into 12 stars using a mini star shaped cookie cutter.
6. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the remaining pie crust into Β½-inch wide strips.
7. Use one of the long strips to create a small rectangle barrier in the top left corner of the sheet pan.
8. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tbsp water. Brush the egg wash over the top of the stars and stripes of dough.
9. Fill the large area completely with cherry pie filling.
10. Fill the small rectangle with blueberry pie filling.
11. Create 5 stripes on top of the cherry pie filling with the long strips of dough.
12. Arrange the stars on top of the blueberry pie filling.
13. Brush the edges of the pie crust with the remaining egg wash.
14. Sprinkle the stars and stripes with sparkling sugar.
15. Place the prepared pie in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to chill before baking.
16. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450Β°F.
17. Bake the pie for about 25 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbling. If the edges of the pie start to brown before the stars and stripes, cover the edges with foil and continue baking until the crusts on top of the pie are golden brown.
18. Let the pie set for about 10 minutes before slicing into and serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired. Enjoy!
