It’s a beautiful, hot cool Sunday afternoon here in the city of Brownsville, Texas. I’ve decided to blog outside in our backyard and I’m still in my pj’s at 4:20 in the afternoon. It feels good to be lazy one day out of the week, lol.
We had brunch this morning, I whipped up some whole wheat banana pancakes. I’ve been craving pancakes all week long and was saving it for today; it was worth it.
I used this pancake mix that I purchased at Big Lots a couple of weeks ago. I love that store, you never know what you’ll find in there.
Banana pancakes are my favorite and they are easy to make too!
Ingredients:
2 cups of whole wheat pancake mix, 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of non-fat milk, 1 whole riped banana (smashed), 1 tsp. of vanilla extract, 1 tsp. of cinammon, 2 tbsp. flaxseeds, and 1/2 c of chopped walnuts
Directions:
mix all ingredients and you want the batter to be runny but not too runny that it looks like water. heat skillet, spray it with some pam (canola), and pour batter in, I used 1/2 measuring cup to pour in batter. Make sure the heat is on medium heat, you don’t want to burn your pancakes. You can slice up your favorite fruit and serve it over your pancakes.
this was the hubby’s plate

it was a lovely brunch and the pancakes were delicious! we had happy tummies!

Absolutely adorable spelling out I LOVE YOU with the pancakes. I love that idea. Maybe I’ll do it for my husband next time I make them (Hope you don’t mind me snatching your idea!) Also, I love days where I’m still in my pjs in the afternoon. The best days!
