Introduction: 3-Ingredient Pancake Balls

By
About: I want to stir things up in the kitchen and get creative with what I cook. I'm not a professional, just a college student with a passion for cooking.

In search of a quick, healthy breakfast? You'll be looking forward to your next breakfast with this recipe. These pancake balls are easy to make, low calorie, and you probably already have the ingredients in your pantry!

Step 1: Ingredients

  • Non-Stick Cooking Spray
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Banana

Step 2: Prepare the Cake Pop Maker

Liberally spray the cake pop maker with cooking spray and plug it in. Close the lid to allow it to heat up.

Note:

If you don't have a cake pop maker, you can still make these pancakes. Instead of cooking in the cake pop maker, cook as you would normal pancakes. You won't be able to make the pancakes into balls, but they'll still be just as yummy!

Step 3: Mash the Banana

Put the banana into a bowl (I used one with a lip for easy pouring) and mash with a fork until smooth.

Step 4: Add the Egg

Crack the egg into the mashed banana and stir until completely combined.

Step 5: Cook the Batter

Pour the batter into the cake pop maker, almost filling each mold to the top. Close the lid and allow to cook for about 2 minutes.

Step 6: Rotate the Pancakes

After about 2 minutes, take a spoon and scrape the sides of one of the molds. Flip the pancake so that the top gets cooked further and becomes round. Repeat this for each mold. With the lid of the cake pop maker open, cook for 1 minute, until the pancake balls are slightly golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7: Remove and Repeat

Remove the cooked pancake balls into a separate container. As before, prep the cake pop maker with cooking spray and repeat steps 5 and 6 with the remaining batter, until all of the batter has been cooked.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy!
