Ingredients:
- 1 Β½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ΒΌ teaspoon salt
- ΒΎ cup mashed ripe banana (about 2 small bananas)
- 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter (plus more for greasing griddle)
- 1 large egg
- ΒΎ cup buttermilk
- ΒΌ cup packed brown sugar (preferably dark brown sugar)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
To Serve:
- Butter
- Maple syrup
- Sliced banana
- Walnuts
- Chocolate chips
Instructions:
1οΈβ£ Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. π₯£ This will be your dry ingredient mixture.
2οΈβ£ Prepare Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, melted butter, egg, buttermilk, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. π₯π This mixture will bring the rich, sweet flavor to your pancakes.
3οΈβ£ Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough. π
4οΈβ£ Heat the Griddle:
Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat and grease with a bit of butter. π§π₯ This ensures that your pancakes won’t stick and will have a beautiful golden-brown color.
5οΈβ£ Cook the Pancakes:
Drop the batter in approximately β cup portions onto the griddle, spreading out the batter to form even circles. π₯ Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface. Note that the batter is thick, so bubbles might be hard to see.
6οΈβ£ Flip and Finish Cooking:
Flip the pancakes and continue cooking until they are cooked through, about another couple of minutes. Make sure not to turn up the heat too high, as you want the pancakes to cook slowly so that the outside doesn’t cook faster than the inside. β³π
7οΈβ£ Serve:
Serve the pancakes hot with butter, maple syrup, sliced banana, walnuts, and/or chocolate chips. ππ«π Enjoy the sweet and comforting flavors in every bite!
Cooking Tips:
- Ripe Bananas: Ensure your bananas are ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
- Donβt Overmix: Overmixing the batter can lead to dense pancakes. Mix until just combined.
- Low Heat: Cooking on low heat helps ensure the pancakes cook evenly without burning.
