Guys.
I need to tell you something wonderful.
These pancakes don’t have gluten in them. Β Seriously.
You can’t be upset when you live in a world where you can have a fluffy stack of pancakes for breakfast without needing wheat flour.
I’ll be the first to admit that I was skeptically optimistic about these but I’m happy to say that my skepticism was erased the moment I lifted the first one off the griddle.
And even more so when I bit into this stack. Β It was like biting into light, fluffy banana bread.
These are the real deal guys. Β Legit gluten-free, Paleo-friendly pancakes.
Gluten-Free Banana Bread Pancakes (from Tina’s OMG, Pancakes!)
Makes 6-8 pancakes
Ingredients:
- 3 bananas
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup almond meal/flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat (spray with coconut oil if you’d like to ensure pancakes won’t stick)
- Lightly mash bananas in a bowl (or use Tina’s ‘mash-in-peel’ method)
- Combine mashed bananas and remainder of ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth.
- Using an ice cream scoop, scoop batter onto pre-heated pan, waiting just until bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, then flip.
- Serve with warm sunflower seed butter and a small handful of your favorite berries.

Ugh – I wish I hadn’t JUST made breakfast. these look so good!

Definitely make these this weekend – I think they would fit into your eating plan! Or I hope that they do!

Love that you can see the steam rolling off!

I really need to get my hands on some almond flour. What is the difference between almond flour and almond meal?
Cait says
I don’t think there’s any difference. In fact, my Bob’s Red Mill bag says “Almond Flour/Meal” on it. And definitely pick some up – it’s so nice to have in the kitchen!
Katie says
WHAT? Every time I try to make healthyish/non-flour pancakes they look…well, not this good. I’m so in.
Cait says
I thought – I thought that would be how these would turn out but they were so thick and fluffy! It’s a great recipe…wish I could take credit for it!
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
Mmmm yum!! And can I just say? I was missing your delicious breakfasts and pancake stacks! π

Haha oh don’t worry I’m still eating them plenty π Glad this gave you your fix!

MigraineMe says
Oh my goodness those look lovely, as all of your food always does! π
Cait says
Aw, thank you π
Naomi says
Cait! I figured after making two batches of these in the past 24 hours, I had to tell you how they turned out! For starters, I didn’t have almond meal, so I just ground up 1/4c of almonds in the food processor and I ended up using a flax egg in replace of one of the eggs. THEY WERE DELICIOUS. This recipe is great not only because it’s paleo friendly and gluten free but so good! Please keep posting these types of recipes!
Cait says
Oh good! That makes me so happy to hear!! Thank you so much for letting me know π
Corrie Anne says
I love this kind of recipe too! Awesome. Sounds so good!!! That’s awesome that a commenter above just used almonds!!
Cait says
I know right?! The recipe is seriously good, definitely give it a try!
Sondra says
Am I the only one who seems to be having an issue with getting this recipe to come out right? I also ground up some almonds into flour and then followed the directions as they were but I can’t seem to get my pancakes to form right. π Any suggestions?
Cait says
Hmm, sorry you’re seeming to have trouble with it! I’m not sure what could be going wrong…are you using a food processor to mix all the ingredients?
