Hulk Spinach & Banana Pancakes
Naturally sweet, egg-free, and a highly effective way to serve leafy greens without texture issues.
Ingredients
- 1 large handful of baby spinach
- 1 ripe banana
- A splash of milk or plain yogurt
- Oat flour or spelt flour (enough to thicken)
Preparation
- Blend the spinach with the banana and milk/yogurt until perfectly smooth (no leafy bits).
- Stir in the flour gradually until you reach a pourable pancake batter consistency.
- Pour small circles onto a non-stick pan over medium heat. Flip when bubbles appear on the surface.
Why it works: The sweet banana completely masks the spinach flavor, providing essential iron and phytonutrients in a friendly format.
