Sweet Zucchini Pancakes (SOS Free, Vegan)

This pancake recipe came out of a need to use up some banana's that had reached their prime.

The banana and berries adds just enough sweetness, eliminating the need for sugar.

I added some shredded zucchini to amp up the nutritional value and to take advantage of it's low calorie density. And no, you don't taste the zucchini.

I make these oil free by cooking them on my old, but trustworthy non-stick griddle. If you're having trouble with them sticking, turn the heat down and spritz the pan with a bit of coconut oil.

I will make a batch of these and place them on a cooling rack. Once cool, I layer them between parchment paper and freeze them for a quick breakfast throughout the week.

Now, onto the recipe:
