Can I use regular flour instead of coconut flour?
It may change the consistency of the pancakes. Also coconut flour is much better as it is higher in fiber and protein than plain flour.
Hello.
Can I use tapioca?
Tnx
Tapioca flour? I wouldn’t recommend it. Unlike coconut flour that is rich in protein and fiber, tapioca flour offers virtually no nutritional benefits.
Thanks a lot Katie.
Does this recipe make 1 serving?
This will make about 2servings
Thank you ,I will try to do it.
I have never tried cake , These cake looks awesome!
Do you mix the bananas with the eggs and protein shake or are they used just as a topping?
I just top the pancakes with bananas 🙂
tried these yesterday, they are AMAZING 🙂
Just wondering if you know the nutritional information for this recipe? They look so delicious and I’d like to give them a try.
Hi Savannah! The great thing about eating clean is you really don’t need to stress about calories etc. as long as you are eating reasonable portions. This is serving size 2 and is about 300 calories, 25g protein, 30g carbs and 9g fat (but all healthy carbs and fats that you want in the am). If you are trying to cut down on fat, use less walnuts and also try using PB2 peanut butter powder instead of regular peanut butter 🙂 Hope this helps!
Oh, definitely not stressing about the calories and such. I like to keep track of my food intake and the nutritional information just to make sure I’m in the right ballpark. No big deal, though. Thank you so much!
I tried to make these and they turned into flat, tough little pancakes 🙁 What could I have done wrong?
Hmmm…. They will be a bit different than what you’re used to, but shouldn’t be tough…. Maybe you need to add a little more almond milk?
I was supposed to add almond milk?? I missed that haha!!
whoops! Yep! And it’s noted to add more as needed to get pancake batter consistency 🙂
Weird I don’t see that haha! How much do I add?
Hey! That’s so strange… I think I was looking at the Guiltless Nutrition Guide recipe. You can just add as needed to reach the right consistency.
I made these but I think I read the recipe wrong. To be clear, we should not use any of the banana in the actual pancake mix? Just for the topping, correct? Thanks!! ??
Hey babe! You mix all the ingredients together (including banana) in order to make the batter. 🙂
Have you had any luck freezing these? I want to make a large batch, and have them ready in the freezer to pop in the toaster for busy mornings.

Hi Carrie! That is a great idea, tbh we haven’t tried it yet, but it could for sure work. Let us know if you do!
