Now, here's a new kicker, just over three weeks ago, we started the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD). I had read how so many diseases can be cured with this diet, including but not limited to crohn's, ulcerative colitis, celiac, chronic diarrhea and autism. No one in our family has any of these, however, digestive issues are prevalent as well as dairy intolerance, another digestive issue. So I made the leap. It took me a few weeks of reading, internet searching for other people's experiences, and finally I bought the book "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" by Elaine Gottschall.
I won't go into details about the Specific Carbohydrate Diet on this post. To learn more about it, visit www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info.
My kids have been eating cereal for breakfast for years. They were a little panicked when they found out they wouldn't be able to eat cereal anymore! Well these banana pancakes did the trick and as far as recipes go, it doesn't any simpler than this, with only two ingredients! We love these for breakfast or as a quick grab-and-go snack.
There are many SCD sites and blogs which have this recipe, calling for 1 banana and 1 egg. The first time I tried to make them, they didn't turn out. Maybe my bananas were too big? So I came up with a ratio that delivers great results every time.
banana pancakes
1 cup bananas (ripe, spotted bananas)
3 eggs
- Put all ingredients in the blender.
- Mix until well blended.
- Pour into well oiled pan on medium heat (I use coconut oil).
- Cook for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is golden
- Flip and cook the other side for another couple minutes.
***I triple this recipe and it doesn't last more than a day. These are sweet enough to eat on their own. My kids like it with a drizzle of our "syrup", which is honey, heated with a bit of water and butter.
***This is also great recipe to make when slowly reintroducing foods after finishing the Wild Rose Herbal D-Tox.
