Healthy Pancake Cereal is a fun, nutritious twist on pancakes, served in bite-sized pieces with fresh fruit and optional toppings, making it a playful breakfast option.

Ingredients

1 cup 1% milk, buttermilk, or almond milk

1 cup unbleached all-purpose or whole wheat flour

1 ripe banana

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon oil

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

Cooking spray

1 cup fresh mixed berries, for topping

1 large banana, sliced

Optional: whipped cream and colored sprinkles for topping

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
  2. Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla to the mashed banana and whisk until fully combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  5. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  6. Drop small spoonfuls of the batter onto the skillet, forming tiny pancakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Once all pancakes are cooked, serve them in a bowl like cereal.
  8. Top with fresh mixed berries, banana slices, and any optional toppings like whipped cream and sprinkles.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, use almond milk and leave out the whipped cream.

Try adding a spoonful of peanut butter or almond butter to the batter for extra richness.

Add chocolate chips to the pancake batter for a sweet twist.

Swap the berries for other fruits like sliced strawberries, kiwi, or mango.

Add a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or even Nutella for a sweeter treat.
