Easy Peasy Gluten-Free Spinach Pancakes

I love making these pancakes for my son's breakfast because they're quick, tasty and healthy. Pancakes don't have to be a weekend-only treat when they're made with nourishing ingredients. We have them two or three times a week, and they work for kids and adults alike. They're gluten-free, high in fiber and have no refined sugar.

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 medium banana
• ½ tsp baking powder
• 1 cup spinach (or other greens like baby kale)
• 2 Tbsp buckwheat flour (brown rice flour or another flour you have works too)
• 1 Tbsp hemp seeds (optional)
• ½ tsp spirulina (optional)
• Maple syrup or honey to serve (optional)

Directions

1. Blend all the ingredients until you have a pancake-batter consistency.
2. Heat a non-stick pan and add a little butter.
3. Pour in the batter and cook for 2–3 minutes on medium heat, then flip and cook the other side.
4. Serve with your favorite toppings, or enjoy them plain.
