     Surprisingly good - I added 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder, 1 T flax and topped w/ 1 T of peanut butter which brought the total calories to 318 - wanted to make sure I would be satisfied until lunchtime. Made 1 good sized pancake. - 5/9/11

     Doesn't remind me of a traditional pancake but good anyway! Very filling. I found it easier top top with additions (blue berries, chocolate chips etc) than to add them to the pancake. They are VERY banana-y, so don't be surprised! I am going to try the apple as a base too with some cinnamon. - 2/13/14

     no need for stevia or yogurt! You can even add a little cardomon and/or coconut milk and they are great that way and paleo. - 4/13/13

     Had these for breakfast.. Yummy!! I did change it a bit by adding baking soda and vanilla and a half (2.3 oz) banana. - 8/9/14

     It didn't look like the photo- it was darker. Also, I had a hard time getting them (I made 2 smaller pancakes) getting them cooked all the way through for some reason. Anyway, I liked them, they were like regular banana pancakes and I liked the texture of the flax in them. - 3/6/14

     Just made these this morning. Loved them. Loved the nutty flavor. I added 3 tbsp. of flax to them as it seems to have been forgotten in the recipe above. My husband hates flax, but loved the pancake. Filling too. - 12/18/10

     I doubled recipe & added 1 tbsp. chia seeds & 2 tbsps. vanilla protein powder. Agree with previous posts re: difficulty cooking 1 large pancake, so I split it into 2 while turning.
    Hubby loved them, topped with organic Melt & agave syrup.

     Not a pancake - at best it's an egg white omelette with some flax and banana. I wasn't crazy about the texture and the flavor was a bit bland, but the peanut butter I put on made it edible. - 3/9/19

     I left the stevia out and used vanilla yogurt (I'll try the coconut milk next time...Yes, the next time). I also added protein powder. The pancake was quite filling. - 8/13/18

     I have a similar recipe that adds 1/4 teaspoon baking powder,and vanilla, 1 tab flax and gives microwave directions that are amazing simple. 3 minutes in a wide bowl, (soup) I like proportions of this one. this one doubles the flax meal) I always add some PB2 on top. Love that peanut butter. - 7/13/17

     These are good. But I had a hard time getting them to cook through and they didn't look like the picture. Maybe i need to lower my pan heat? Use a lid? I dont know. If someone has cooking tips, I'd love to try these again. - 8/6/15
