Combine all ingredients except the almonds. Use a potato masher or the back of a large spoon to smash banana and mix all ingredients together until smooth.
Heat a grilled to medium heat. You don't want it too hot as these pancakes cook very quickly. Keep it medium or even medium low.
Pour three palm sized pancakes onto the griddle and sprinkle almonds over the top of each. I find three is the most I can handle at one time without cooking. Again...these cook quickly so stay put in front of the skillet with your spatula. When you see small bubble arise to the surface of the pancake, lift a small portion of the pancake up and sneak a peak to see how it looks.
When ready, flip over and cook another 30 seconds or so, peaking again to see if it's ready. Remove to serving plate and continue with rest of the batter. Spray a dollop of light whipped topping and serve.
