St. Patty's Day Pancakes (AKA Spinach-Banana Bread pancakes)

Here's the perfect St. Patty's Day breakfast for you and your lucky babes…quick and delicious, I promise. And they will never know what makes them green. Blame the leprechauns!

St. Patty's Day Pancakes
Serves 2

Ingredients:
1 large ripe banana, peeled
1 tsp melted coconut oil
2 tsp lemon juice (approx from 1/2 lemon), optional*
2 eggs
1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 cup oats 
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
heavy pinch of nutmeg
1/4 tsp vanilla 
2 large handfuls spinach

Method:
Add all the ingredients to your high-speed blender and mix until smooth. 

Let the batter rest for 10 minutes (it will get puffy). If batter is too thick, you can gently incoporate more almond milk at this point.

Drop batter on an oiled griddle and cook each side for about 2 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.


Serve as desired- with maple syrup (although they are plenty sweet as-is), almond butter, jam, or fresh berries.They are also perfect on their own.
