Ingredients

1 spray(s) cooking spray   
  2 cup(s) unsweetened frozen blackberries, or fresh blackberries   
2 Tbsp powdered sugar   
1 cup(s) pancake mix   
1/4 cup(s) flax seed(s)   
1/4 cup(s) wheat germ, toasted-variety   
  1 cup(s) fat free skim milk   
  3 large egg white(s)   
1 Tbsp walnut oil, roasted-variety   
1 tsp vanilla extract   
  2 medium banana(s), thinly sliced   

Instructions

  • Coat a griddle or large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat over medium heat.

  • In a small saucepan, combine blackberries and powdered sugar; set pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce thickens and reduces, about 10 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine pancake mix, flax seeds and wheat germ; mix with a fork to combine. Add milk, egg whites, oil and vanilla extract; whisk until large lumps disappear (ignore any small lumps).

  • For each pancake, pour a scant 1/4-cup of batter onto hot griddle or skillet. Cook until bubbles appear around edges and then top each pancake with banana slices; flip pancake. Cook until golden on both sides, about 1 minute more.

  • Remove cooked pancakes to a serving plate and cover with foil to keep warm (or keep warm in a 250ºF oven). Repeat with remaining batter to make 12 pancakes. Serve pancakes with blackberry syrup spooned over top. Yields 2 pancakes and about 2 tablespoons of syrup per serving.

The taste was delicious, but the bananas stuck to the pan (brand new, non-stick) after I had flipped the pancakes over and tried to remove them. The bananas completely peeled off the pancakes! Frustrating. Next time I'll just mix the bananas into the batter.

My grandson and I thought these were great. The bananas on the bottom when you flipped them became grilled. That gave them a really special flavor (like bananas foster). Instead of blackberries, I used fresh strawberries and a squirt of l/f whipped cream. It was like eating dessert.
