If you want a bit of a treat but a healthier alternative to real pancakes, this might do the trick. This low fat, high protein, low sugar and wheat free (gluten free) recipe is all kosher (for your health.) In this recipe I use egg whites to keep the fat content low for those who are dieting for tournaments etc, but you can use real eggs also. I I use coconut flour instead of wheat flour, greek yogurt instead of cream and only a dash of natural maple syrup to sweeten things up a bit. Serve this banana and strawberries and it is a delicious (and not so naughty) treat.
For those on a mega super diet of who are cutting weight then try adding grapefruit instead of a banana to keep the carbs lower.
