Method

  1. In a bowl, mash the banana with a fork until it resembles a thick purée. Stir in the eggs, baking powder and vanilla.

  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan or pancake pan over a medium heat and brush with half the oil. Using half the batter, spoon two pancakes into the pan, cook for 1-2 mins each side, then tip onto a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining oil and batter. Top the pancakes with the pecans and raspberries.

This is only recipe I have ever disliked. Unless you use only teaspoon of mix per pancake they do not hold shape enough to turn in the pan. They end up looking like scrambled eggs with mashed up banana , but are quite tasteless. Will not be making again!

Is the calorie count per pancake or per serving?

I think per pancake. There are about a 100 calories in one egg and a 100 calories in one whole banana. And nuts also have a lot of calories in them.... Doesn't mean that it's not healthy cause it sure is but it's definitely not a low-calorie breakfast in my opinion since one pancake won't fill you up.

Actually it would be per serving (2 pancakes), as the total calorie count of the ingredients used is ~ 500 kcal.

Easy to make, lovely banana taste (riper bananas will be sweeter and easier to mash). My husband and I were pleasantly surprised. We had ours with golden syrup as we didn't have nuts or berries in.
