Almond Flour Banana Pancakes
Description
This recipe begins by mashing ripe bananas and mixing them with eggs, almond flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt to create a smooth batter. Vanilla extract and chocolate chips can be added optionally to enhance the flavor and sweetness. The batter is portioned onto a greased skillet and cooked over medium heat until bubbles appear, then flipped to brown the other side. The almond flour imparts a mild nutty taste and a tender texture that holds moisture from the bananas.
The pancakes yield about six to seven small, approximately 4-inch pancakes, making them well-suited for 2 to 3 servings. Cooking at a moderate temperature ensures even browning without burning. Immediate serving preserves their softness and flavor.
These pancakes offer a gluten-free alternative using almond flour and rely on natural sweetness from bananas, making refined sugar optional. The recipe can be doubled or tripled for larger groups.
