Banana-Cashew Pancakes

Yields4 Servings

A delicious way to start the morning for the whole family! Each pancake is only 15 grams of carbs, so people with T1D can enjoy guilt-free. You can add whatever toppings and other mix-ins you want; just keep in mind that additions can increase the carb count. Recipe from FoodHero.org.

 1.25 cups plain flour / all purpose flour
 1 tbsp baking powder
 1 tbsp sugar
 ¼ tsp salt
 200 ml low-fat milkMore milk will create a thinner batter
 2 tbsp canola oil
 2 tbsp water
 1 bananachopped
 3 tbsp cashewschopped
 yogurt, blueberries(optional)
1

Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

2

Combine milk, oil, and water in a separate bowl.

3

Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients and mix well.

4

Add chopped banana and cashews to the batter.

5

Spray cooking spray or spread oil on a hot skillet/griddle. If you don't have a griddle, a non-stick pan with oil works great as well.

6

Pour ~1/4 cup of batter on the griddle for each pancake. Flip the pancakes when the top looks bubbly, then cook until the second side is golden-brown.

7

Serve with whatever toppings you like (I added yogurt and blueberries).
