This easy healthy banana pancakes recipe is a quick breakfast any day of the week. Just 5 ingredients and you can make these gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, paleo pancakes from scratch in minutes!
Pancakes have always been one of my favorite breakfasts, but most days I don't have time to make them from scratch. Before I went gluten and dairy-free, I used to use the box mix to save time. Now, this is my go-to paleo pancake recipe. Just 5 ingredients. Make it in the blender and the batter is ready before your frying pan heats up. It's just as easy as using a mix, and it doesn't contain any of the processed food ingredients.

Banana pancakes with coconut flour
The ingredient list for regular pancakes from a packaged pancake mix includes: enriched bleached flour (bleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), sugar, leavening (sodium bicarbonate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate), dextrose, nonfat dry milk, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, salt, wheat gluten, calcium carbonate, corn syrup solids, sodium caseinate, mono and diglycerides, lactic acid.
Not a great way to start the day, to say the least.
Here's the ingredient list for my quick and easy blender pancake recipe is just coconut flour, bananas, eggs, vanilla, and salt. They're just as fast, made from all real food ingredients—no gluten, grains, dairy, sugar, or processed food chemicals—and they even passed the husband test.
The coconut flour gives these banana and egg pancakes the perfect texture. And the touch of vanilla makes them so good you almost don't need toppings. But what are pancakes without a little something extra?
The topping options for these paleo banana pancakes are endless:
- vanilla ghee (this brand is amazing!) and real maple syrup
- almond butter and honey
- fresh berries and coconut whipped cream
- sliced bananas sauteed in ghee for a paleo Bananas Foster version
- mini chocolate chips or melted dark chocolate blended with coconut milk for a quick chocolate syrup
- sliced apples sauteed in ghee and cinnamon for an apple pie version
- fresh peaches and pecans
I could go on and on, but you get the idea. There's a pancake flavor option for every day of the week! Serve them with Whole30-friendly bacon or sausage patties.
