Instructions

To Make Pancakes

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and kosher salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, mash the banana with a fork until almost smooth.
  3. Whisk in the eggs, milk and vanilla, and add the melted butter. Whisk until combined.
  4. Pour the banana mixture into the flour mixture.
  5. With a spatula, gently mix the ingredients until combined. Do not overmix. The batter should be thick and a bit lumpy.
  6. In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Ladle about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbles appear on the top and the bottom is nicely golden brown. 
  8. Flip the pancakes and cook for an extra minute or until browned.
  9. Wipe out the pan with paper towels, add more butter and continue cooking the pancakes until all the batter is used.

To Make the Banana Topping

  1. Heat the butter in a sauté pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Whisk in the brown sugar and maple syrup and cook for about 5 minutes or until all the sugar has melted and thickened slightly.
  3. Add the pecans (if using) and mix to combine.
  4. Add the banana slices and cook for about a minute.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat and add the rum or rum extract.
  6. Return the pan to the heat and cook for about 3-4 minutes. This will burn off the alcohol in the rum leaving you with just the flavor.
  7. To serve, spoon the banana topping over a pancake serving.

Notes

  • You can use over-ripe bananas to make the pancakes.
  • For the banana foster topping, the bananas should be ripe but firm.
  • Although the alcohol in rum burns off while the banana foster sauce cooks, you can use rum extract if preferred.
  • Grease the skillet or griddle with cooking spray or butter between cooking each batch of pancakes.
  • To keep the pancakes warm while cooking them, preheat the oven to 200°F. Transfer the pancakes from the skillet or griddle to a baking sheet and keep the pancakes warm in the oven until ready to serve.
  • Whole milk, 2% milk, oat milk or almond milk can be used to make this homemade pancake recipe.
