Banana Pancake Ingredients
- 1 ripe Banana
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 1/2 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
- Mash the Banana: Using a fork, mash the ripe banana in a bowl until smooth and free of large lumps.
- Mix in the Egg: Crack in the egg and stir well until the mixture is fully combined and slightly fluffy.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Stir the all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into the banana and egg mixture until the batter is smooth and evenly mixed.
- Heat the Pan: Warm a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. No oil is necessary due to the non-stick surface and batter consistency.
- Cook the Pancakes: Drop about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the pan. Cook until the edges look set and bubbles form on the surface.
- Flip the Pancakes: Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve warm, topped with slices of banana or your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, honey, or fresh fruit.
Notes
- For vegan variation, replace the egg with a flaxseed egg or mashed chia seeds.
- Use gluten-free flour to make the recipe gluten-free.
- Adjust cinnamon amount based on your spice preference.
- Serve immediately for best texture and taste.
- You can add a pinch of baking powder for fluffier pancakes.
