Directions
-
Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, the 2 mashed bananas, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a separate large bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, about 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Step 2
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter until evenly combined.
-
Step 3
Lightly coat a griddle with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. For each pancake, pour about 1/4-cup batter onto the pan, spreading it out evenly. Cook, turning once, until both sides are lightly golden.
-
Step 4
If desired, cut out small circle shapes from 1 or 2 pancakes for the "arms" and "legs."
-
Step 5
On a plate, arrange a pancake with 4 small pancake circles to make the "arms" and "legs." Arrange 3 round banana slices on the top of the pancake. Top the banana slices with a small smear of peanut butter and place 1 blueberry on each banana slice to make the "eyes." Arrange the strawberry slices and triangle-shaped banana slices to make the "lips" and "teeth."
