The Best 3 Ingredient Pancakes

I’m all about keeping things simple in the kitchen. As a busy mom of two littles and a pediatric registered dietitian, my main mission is to make tasty and nutritious meals achievable, especially on those super hectic days. So, I absolutely had to share this 3-ingredient pancake recipe with you. Self-rising flour simplifies the cooking and baking process as it already contains a leavening agent. It ensures consistent results, is versatile for various recipes, and can be a cost-effective and convenient choice for spontaneous baking. It works beautifully in this banana bread, high protein pizza dough, and these fluffy pancakes! They freeze like a dream, making them the perfect make-ahead breakfast. And if you have some rolled oats, you should totally try these 3 ingredient banana oat pancakes also!

Ingredients

I am highlighting just the ones that need further explanation. The complete list is in the recipe card below.

Self-rising flour – this is a blend of all purpose flour with baking powder and salt. My personal favorite is one from King Arthur. Bananas – use over-ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots. And if you often have more ripe bananas than you know what to do with, here’s a collection of healthy banana recipes that you’re going to love! Eggs – use room temperature eggs for best results. I take them out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to baking.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Storage

Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the fridge or cool completely on a wire rack and freeze for up to 3 months. It definately saves me time, and I love that this one holds a consistent temperature (so less chance of burning the pancakes) and is super easy to clean. I’ve also been using it to make eggs, cheese quesadillas, grilled cheese, quinoa wraps, tofu…it’s amazing.

Maple syrup or honey Fresh fruit (e.g. more banana slices or fresh blueberries) Fruit jam (try this no added sugar strawberry jam or mango chia jam ) Date syrup Yogurt Peanut/nut/seed butter (thinned out for babies) Unsweetened applesauce

Here’s how to freeze pancakes as well as reheat them so they taste just as good as the day you made them.
