Banana Nut Pancakes

MSCD 6, 9 or 12-month recipe (see note below)


Breakfast for dinner? Yes, please!

2 cups oat flour
½ cup brown rice flour
½ cup pecan flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. aluminum-free baking powder
2 tsp. cinnamon
4 eggs
1 ½ cup milk (plain brown rice “milk” drink, organic cow milk, or goat’s milk)
1 cup live yogurt
2 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp. vanilla
1-2 bananas, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 cup walnuts, chopped

In a large bowl, mix first 6 dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, mix next 5 wet ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into the dry and mix with an electric mixer on high until completely incorporated and lump-free. Stir in bananas and walnuts.

Heat skillet or griddle at medium heat. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking. Pour batter by the ½-cupfuls onto griddle. When bubbles form throughout batter, flip the pancake to cook the other side. Remove to serving dish when cooked through. Repeat until you’ve used all the batter.

Serves a family of 5! If you don’t need that many pancakes, simply half the recipe.
