Brainless Banana Pancakes

This weekend I had time to make breakfast, and decided to try out this pancake recipe. It's the first time I had pancakes for breakfast in a while ;)

Brainless Banana Pancakes (Serves 3 at 4 points a piece)

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 banana, mashed
1 1/4 cups non-fat milk
1 tbsp splenda or sugar

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, sift the flour and baking powder together.

2. In a small bowl, mash the banana with a fork and add 1/4 cup of the milk, mixing together until there are no lumps. Add the banana, splenda or sugar, and remaining milk to the dry mix and stir together until "just mixed."

3. Portion out about 3/4 of a cup to 1 cup of batter onto a hot non-stick pan or lightly oiled frying pan and cover with a lid. Let sit on medium heat until the center starts to bubble and become sturdy. Flip pancake over and cook other side until golden brown. Repeat process until the batter is gone.

The batter turned out to be a little runny, which caused problems during the cooking/flipping stage. So things may turn out better if you add a little less milk. But other than the runniness of the batter, these were good pancakes. They had a great banana flavor that wasn't overpowering. Overall, the husband and I really liked them. Also, for an added bonus, you could add some mini-chocolate chips to these as an extra treat.
