Banana Pear Pancakes
These delightfully healthy (and easy!) pancakes are so simple. Throw everything in and off you go. They have no gluten, grains, egg or dairy... common ingredients in standard pancakes. The sugar comes from the overripe bananas and ripe pear, so if you are a bit of a sweet tooth or aren’t using very ripe fruit you can easily add a spoonful of sugar if you wish.
