Banana-flax pancakes

I can't believe how long it's been since I posted on here! In my defense, I've been too ill to play around with many recipes, but wow! Time flies!
I spent last night thinking about pancakes. Dh and I had fasted for the day, so food was pretty much all I could think of. This morning, I realised that I didn't have a pancake recipe! So, this is what I came up with:

1 1/8c flour (whatever gf blend you prefer- I used a four-flour bean blend)
1/2tsp xanthan gum
1/2tsp salt
2Tbsp sugar
1Tbsp baking powder
1c milk (I used almond)
2 eggs(beaten)
1 banana
1Tbsp ground flax

Mash the banana, add eggs, milk, and flax. Set aside for a few minutes (the flax will absorb some liquid). Sift dry ingredients together and add to the wet mixture. Stir well, and cook as you do your regular recipe! (Might I encourage you to not use non-stick though...toxic stuff!
