Cinnamon Banana Pancakes

Cinnamon Banana Pancakes
This recipe is SUPER easy and so yummy! I was skeptical at first because there is no flour in the recipe and I thought the pancakes would be nearly impossible to flip. However, I was wrong! The egg is a great binder for the recipe and I thought the pancakes were very easy to flip and transfer to a plate. This recipe yields ~10 pancakes, but you can always make the pancakes smaller in an effort to get more pancakes out of it.
Ingredients
1 banana
2 eggs
¼ tsp. Cinnamon


Directions
  1. In a bowl, mash the banana with a fork
  2. Add eggs and cinnamon; mix until combined
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ~¼ cup of batter and cook for 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Serve w/maple syrup, honey, of any other fixings you like to put on pancakes! (I love fresh fruit and a handful of chocolate chips!)

Here is the link to the website & video where I originally learned how to make it:

Introduction Hey Y'all! My name is Tara and I created this blog as a way for me to have some sort of outlet for all of the things I have going on in my head - there's a lot! I plan on writing about a lot of things going on in my life (random thoughts/rants I need to get out into the world, family, friends, etc.). I also plan on sharing a lot of recipes because I LOVE to cook and bake! I have also recently started reading a ton of books now that I have more time on my hands (more about this later!), so I want to share my thoughts on various books that I finish reading - a mini book club if you will! This will be a kind of hodgepodge of things happening on my blog, but it's just a sneak peek into my brain and what goes on in it. My goal is to write a new post every Thursday, but I may post more often if I have a lot on my mind or less if I have a busy week.  Here's a little bit about me: I currently live in Chicago, IL where I am a graduate assistant athletic trainer...

Banana Bread-Bottom Cheesecake

YUM. I am not a huge fan of banana bread, but after trying this recipe, I am in love! I saw this recipe on my Tasty app and thought, "what the heck, let's try it out"! The banana bread part of it was so moist and so yummy, and the cheesecake part was great because it wasn't as rich as regular cheesecake (less guilt after eating it!) Here is the ingredients list for the banana bread layer: 4 ripe bananas (the riper, the better!) 4 tbsp. vegetable oil 1 egg 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract 1.5 cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. baking soda 1/4 tsp. salt 1 tsp. cinnamon For the cheesecake part: 32 oz. (4 blocks) cream cheese, softened* 1/2 cup sugar 1 tbsp. vanilla extract 1 cup milk 1 tbsp. gelatin powder caramel sauce, to taste *I always use reduced fat cream cheese whenever I make a cheesecake, and I have found no difference in texture or richness compared to cheesecakes made with "full-fat" cream cheese....
The House That Built Me Tonight as I write this post, a part of me is feeling very sad and nostalgic. Tonight is my last night in my childhood home. Tomorrow is the day I drive back to Chicago so I can go back to work on Monday. Because the fall sports pre-season is such a hectic time for our athletic department, along with classes starting up at the end of August, I am very unsure if I will be able to come back for one last visit to my childhood home in Michigan before my mom sells the house and moves into her new one.  Let me explain this in a little more detail so y'all can understand what is happening in my life right now: Right now, my mom and stepdad (Dan) are in the process of building a brand new house in New Boston, which is about 25 miles from our house right now in Dearborn Heights. Dan used to live in Brownstown, which is not far from New Boston, but ever since he and my mom started dating 6 years ago, the drive from his house to ours became pretty rough. A...
