Banana Pancakes
These Banana Pancakes blend mashed ripe bananas into a classic pancake batter for added moisture and natural sweetness. The resulting pancakes are tender and slightly fluffy with hints of banana and vanilla. They cook on a griddle until bubbly at the edges, then flip quickly to retain softness inside. The recipe is straightforward, making a useful breakfast option when you have ripe bananas to use up.
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 large egg , beaten
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter , melted
- 2 medium banana mashed, ripe
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl twice, then add in the sugar.
