Bananas are zero points on the Weight Watchers program. This is a very good thing for me since I love them and they are quite filling. Our family eats a lot of bananas anyway so the fruit bowl is always full! They never go to waste because when they get too brown to eat, a batch of scrumptious muffins or a couple loaves of banana bread are only minutes away. In the rare instance we have some 'in between' bunches, neither too green nor too ripe, I will freeze a couple for Yonanas, incredible Chocolate Dipped Frozen bananas, or use them fresh for quick and easy 3 Ingredient Banana Pancakes.
The pancakes are simply made with banana, eggs, and baking powder with a dash of cinnamon if desired. They are fried up in a greased pan and topped with syrup as usual. They are sweet and rich with a caramelized banana flavour - a low-point alternative to a regular pancake breakfast. Very fast and easy to make, I love having these on a weekend morning but they can also work on a busy weekday too.
You can find one version of the popular recipe HERE. Next grocery trip make sure to stock up on a good sized bunch of bananas...
