Why this recipe is gentle

Ripe banana and mild apple puree keep these low-acid and naturally sweet, cooked in very little oil. There is no chocolate, citrus or rich topping, and the batter uses lactose-free milk or oat drink.

Tips

  • Fruit and leavening can be tolerated differently, so start with a small portion if you are sensitive.
  • Skip chocolate, citrus and very rich toppings and serve the pancakes warm and plain.
  • Use the smallest amount of oil that keeps them from sticking.
