Description
Delicious and fluffy banana pancakes that evoke nostalgia and warmth, perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat/gluten-free blend)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 2 eggs (or flax egg)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Mash the bananas in a mixing bowl until nearly smooth.
- Stir in the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
- Pour about a quarter cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form and edges set, about 3-4 minutes.
- Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve hot with toppings of choice like syrup, bananas, or nuts.
Notes
For fluffier pancakes, avoid over-mixing the batter. Allowing the batter to rest for 5-10 minutes can enhance texture.
