Description
Soft, sweet, and full of banana flavor, these fluffy pancakes make the perfect cozy breakfast or brunch treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (aluminum-free)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup mashed overripe banana (about 1 ½ large)
- 1 large egg
- ¾ cup milk
- Banana (sliced, for serving)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another, larger bowl, beat the banana and egg together until blended. Whisk in the milk until combined, then whisk in the dry ingredients. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Using a ⅓-cup measuring cup, pour 3-4 circles of batter into the pan. Cook until the pancakes are puffed on top and golden brown on the bottom, 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side until risen and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Makes 8 pancakes.
- Serve with banana slices and maple syrup.
Notes
For best results, use very ripe bananas. Pancakes can be kept warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the batch.
