Here’s a simple, delicious 3-ingredient breakfast recipe with detailed steps:
3-Ingredient Banana Pancakes
Ingredients:
-
1 ripe banana
-
2 eggs
-
1/2 teaspoon baking powder (optional but helps fluffiness)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the banana:
Peel the banana and mash it thoroughly in a bowl using a fork until it’s smooth with just a few small lumps remaining. -
Add eggs:
Crack the 2 eggs into the bowl with the mashed banana. Whisk together until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and slightly runny. -
Add baking powder: (optional)
Sprinkle the baking powder into the mixture and stir it in well. This step helps the pancakes become a bit fluffier but you can skip it if you don’t have it. -
Heat the pan:
Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. If needed, lightly grease the pan with a little butter or oil to prevent sticking. -
Cook the pancakes:
Pour small rounds of batter (about 2-3 tablespoons each) onto the hot pan. Cook for about 2 minutes on one side until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges start to look set. -
Flip carefully:
Using a spatula, gently flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through. -
Serve:
Stack the pancakes on a plate and enjoy! You can add toppings if you want (like honey, maple syrup, or fresh fruit), but the pancakes themselves are tasty as is.
Why it works:
The banana adds natural sweetness and moisture, eggs provide structure and protein, and baking powder (if used) gives fluffiness. These pancakes are gluten-free, low ingredient, and quick to make.
