This recipe is one of the breakfast world’s best-kept secrets. Two-ingredient banana pancakes? With no flour or oil or sugar-filled store-bought mixes? It’s all true. Bananas and eggs. That’s all you need for this delicious and healthy gluten-free start to your day.

Why you’re going to love these gluten-free pancakes

In this recipe, it’s the eggs that give the pancakes their fluffy texture. No flour needed, which means these eggs are naturally gluten-free! They’re also what makes these banana pancakes make you feel full and satisfied.

Eggs have gotten a bad rep in the past due to their higher than other foods amount of cholesterol, however, it has been proven, time and time again, that eggs and dietary cholesterol do NOT adversely affect cholesterol levels in the blood.

In fact, eggs raise your good cholesterol! And eggs offer so  many more benefits, some of which might surprise you. They even have a place on our 10 Best Foods for Women list. They contain powerful antioxidants, iron and B vitamins, and choline, which is a very important nutrient for your brain. Don’t forget, they’re a symbol of fertility, which lends to their aphrodisiac reputation.

These are aphrodisiac pancakes

And speaking of aphrodisiacs, let’s talk about the other ingredient in these pancakes, the bananas. They are potassium powerhouses, they sustain blood sugar, they contain tryptophan which increases serotonin production AND the bromeliad enzyme, said to enhance the male libido. No wonder they’re shaped like a smile! And in this recipe, they’re what brings a hint of sweetness to the banana pancakes.

So both of these ingredients make the list of the world’s greatest aphrodisiacs. If that isn’t enough to get you out of bed, you can always top them with a few aphrodisiac blueberries to really sweeten the deal.
