Banana Wheat Pancakes

For a healthier version of the usual fluffy pancakes, I tried this experiment. Blended up bananas and wheat germ make for a comforting flavor. You can top these banana wheat pancakes with my homemade blueberry sauce, maple syrup, peanut butter, or get creative!


Ingredients

2 bananas
2 cups soy milk
3 eggs
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup wheat germ
1 1/2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar


Directions

In a blender, mix the bananas, soy milk, eggs, baking powder, and salt.

In a medium bowl, mix the remaining ingredients. Pour the blended ingredients into the mixed ingredients in the bowl, and stir until combined.

Scoop onto a hot griddle or pan coated with a bit of butter or coconut oil, then cook until brown on both sides. Serve with blueberry sauce, peanut butter, maple syrup, or whatever you like on pancakes. These freeze well for future enjoyment too.
