Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until combined.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, use coconut oil or vegan butter.
  • You can substitute flaxseed eggs or commercial egg replacers for a vegan option.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze slices wrapped in plastic wrap in a freezer bag.
