It’s pancake day! And also time to put away that chocolate spread and ice cream in favour of a nice healthy alternative.

Serves 2, makes 4

Equipment:

Mixing bowl, fork, whisk, non-stick frying pan, chopping board, knife, teaspoon

Ingredients

  • 1 large, ripe banana
  • 2 medium eggs, beaten
  • Pinch of baking powder
  •  1 tsp. vegetable oil
  • Fruit of your choice e.g. handful of strawberries or blueberries

Method               

  1. In a bowl, mash 1 large, ripe banana with a fork until it resembles a thick purée.
  2. Stir in 2 beaten eggs and a pinch of baking powder.
  3. Heat a large non-stick frying pan or pancake pan over a medium heat and brush with ½ tsp oil.
  4. Using half the batter, spoon two pancakes into the pan, cook for 1-2 mins each side, then tip onto a plate. Repeat the process with another ½ tsp oil and the remaining batter.
