\"Tahini<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, pancakes! \u00a0 We all love them. \u00a0But sometimes you just don’t want to make them, even when the kids are whining for them. \u00a0They take time to mix up (unless you’re using a pre-made mix like Bisquick…in which case, check out that long list of chemicals and preservatives!), and they’re pretty high in carbs. \u00a0Ready for a game changer? \u00a0Try these Tahini Pancakes<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

This recipe is just three ingredients long. \u00a0WHAT?!?! \u00a0All you need is a very ripe banana, an egg, and a tablespoon of tahini. \u00a0You could use another kind of nut butter, but we use tahini to avoid allergies in my house. \u00a0Tahini is an amazing thing. \u00a0I keep a can of it in my fridge at all times, because it is crucial to homemade hummus<\/a>, baba ghanoush<\/a>, and this kale salad<\/a>. \u00a0It’s just sesame seed butter, but it’s lovely. \u00a0These pancakes have no gluten and no nuts, plus they’re high in protein. \u00a0Win! Win!<\/p>\n

Dress these up however you like. \u00a0Add in chocolate chips, coconut flakes, or raisins. \u00a0They don’t rise like regular pancakes, but they’re certainly more substantial than a crepe. \u00a0Try them for breakfast tomorrow and you—and your pancake-loving kids—will thank me!<\/p>\n
