Banana Pancakes

These Banana Pancakes combine mashed ripe bananas with a classic batter of flour, sugar, baking powder, and milk, delivering fluffy pancakes with natural sweetness and a hint of vanilla. The texture is soft and tender, complemented by slices of fresh banana and maple syrup when served. Cooking on a griddle ensures even golden browning on each side. This recipe is suitable for a comforting breakfast or brunch.

Description

The Banana Pancakes recipe calls for mixing dry ingredients—flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt—with wet ingredients including egg, milk, vanilla, vegetable oil, and mashed ripe bananas. The ripe bananas add moisture and natural sweetness, contributing to a tender, fluffy pancake texture. The batter may remain slightly lumpy, which is typical for banana pancakes.

Cooked on a greased non-stick griddle over medium heat, pancakes are formed in 1/4 cup portions and flipped when bubbles form and the edges set, ensuring even cooking and a golden-brown surface. Serving with banana slices and maple syrup enhances the flavor and provides added texture contrast.

A useful tip is to prepare extra dry ingredients in advance, saving time for future batches by simply adding the wet components when ready to cook.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup milk (I use 1%)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 banana mashed, ripe
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • banana sliced, for serving
  • maple syrup sliced, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. 
  2. Add the egg, milk, vanilla, oil and bananas; stir until thoroughly combined (batter may be slightly lumpy).
  3. Melt the butter on a non stick griddle over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup sized pancakes onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles cover surface, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip, and cook until bottom is golden, about 1-2 minutes more.
  5. Serve immediately and top with maple syrup and banana slices if desired. 

Notes

  • Prepare extra dry ingredient mix ahead and store in a labeled bag to quickly make pancakes by adding wet ingredients later.
