Top a warm stack with all your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, mini chocolate chips, or nut butter. Make some extra for the freezer to defrost quickly on busy mornings. Sandwich two together for a fun peanut butter and jelly sandwich instead of bread. I actually do this all the time when we pack a lunch for a hike.
Literally, no fat is added in this recipe, just a handful of quality ingredients. This means WW points plus are 2 points for each serving if the recipe has one egg and two egg whites.
This recipe is not set in stone though make adjustments if needed. For example, if you want more protein in your banana pancake, use 2 eggs. On the other hand, if no eggs are your preference, then completely replace them using any egg replacer you prefer, or try the chia egg provided here:
