Banana Egg Pancakes

I am way behind on blogging so these pancakes happened a few Saturday's ago. Kids were requesting pancakes one Saturday morning and I had remembered that my best friend told me about the most delicious "pancakes" she made using only bananas and eggs. I couldn't remember exactly how she said she had made them (or exact quantities of each) so I visited my trusty friend Pinterest and found a zillion versions of banana egg pancakes.
 
I mashed 2 ripe(ish) bananas with a fork and stirred in 3 eggs (from neighbors chickens-YUM) to make a batter. I sprinkled in some cinnamon (based on my own preference) and thought a handful of some oats would be good in the batter. I just wanted to give it a little texture and body. Let's say I threw in about a half a cup or so (I really have no idea). I also threw in a handful of chopped walnuts. There you have it...pancake batter.   
 
On a hot griddle, I s.l.o.w.l.y poured some batter over melted butter. I emphasize slowly bc I didn't want to just plop the batter on the pan. It's super thin and would have no doubt run everywhere. I cooked these just as you would a normal pancake and they were really delicious. Different but still very good. Kids and husband loved!  
Notice that my trusty cup of coffee is never too far away!

Oh and as a very special treat, we had a side of bacon with our breakfast (a rare treat in our house). Yum!
