If you follow me on Instagram, its no secret that I love me some pancakes! 🙂 But its also no secret that I always use the pancake mix, and then spruce them up. I wanted to create some low point pancakes from scratch for a change. These blueberry banana pancakes were yummy, and the points stayed nice and low by incorporating a mashed banana into the mixture. This does change the texture of the pancake, they are more on the moist side, but if your ok with that then I think you will enjoy these. And it makes a nice serving of 5 good sized pancakes for only 5 freestyle smart plus.

These sound delicious! Do you think you could sub skim milk for the almond milk though?

Yes, that will work fine 🙂

Hello how many tbsp is one pancake? Just to make sure I make them the correct size I I don't want 5?

Hi, I'm sorry I have never measured exactly how much batter I use per pancake, I just pour 😉

Hip hip hooray, Kate! I discovered your wonderful website last night and cooked up these banana and blueberry pancakes for breakfast this morning. Tbey were really YUMMY - thank you so much for sharing your recipe! I just wish I'd known about you when I joined Weight Watchers a year ago. I reached my goal weight, became a Life Member and ever since I have been struggling to find a balance between my love of baking (and eating) and maintaining my weight within that limited Life Member range. Discovering your website and all of your recipes really excites me and has renewed my motivation to keep on going - thanks so much.

I love this recipe! I'm 14 weeks pregnant and make them at least 3 times a week! I always use a whole egg and less milk, and sometimes I sub oatmeal for part of the flour. Its a really versatile and tasty recipe! I need to try some of your other breakfast ideas, but I crave this one so I haven't branched out yet!

So glad you (and the baby) are enjoying the pancakes, hope you enjoy the other recipes too 🙂

These were so good, I'm pretty sure I'm going to make and freeze a whole pile of these!! Only thing I changed was adding a dash of cinnamon!

So glad you enjoyed them Erin 🙂

Hi. What would you recommend as a substitute for applesauce? I’m allergic to apples so am looking for an alternative.
