Pull out your blender and make these easy (AND HEALTHY!) banana coconut blender pancakes. They’re a taste of the tropics!
Why You’ll Love These Pancakes
- Quick: These blender pancakes come together in minutes and the flavor is out of this world. Blender pancakes are the best – they’re so easy to make and you have a built-in system for pouring onto the pan (straight out of the blender!).
- Nutritious: Full of fruit, whole wheat flour, oats, and flavorful coconut. They’re sweetened only with honey and the only oil in them is a bit of coconut oil.
More Pancakes
If you’re a chocolate fan, don’t miss my chocolate protein pancakes which are also made in the blender. Or my personal favorite blender pancakes — these lemon poppy seed pancakes with a secret source of protein.
Banana pancakes are usually more on the dense side, so if you like a fluffier pancake, you might want to try one of my other pancake recipes. I actually like a dense, moist, filling pancake. I love these as pictured with extra coconut, banana and a drizzle of honey, but they’re also great with maple syrup or a dollop of yogurt.
