Ingredients

  • 1 large banana ripe
  • 1 large egg
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar tightly packed
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¾ cup milk dairy or unsweetened plant-based
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter for frying

Instructions

  • Peel and add your banana to the blender with your egg, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, milk, and vanilla extract.
    1 large banana, 1 large egg, ¾ cup all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ¾ cup milk, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Blend on high for about 30 seconds until completely smooth. Make sure the banana is completely broken down and there are no lumps.
  • Transfer pancake batter to a squeezable bottle (preferred), reusable piping bag, or cup with a spout.
  • Add about 1 tablespoon of butter to a griddle or skillet and turn heat up to medium. Allow pan to heat and butter to melt and sizzle.
    2 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter for frying
  • Carefully add banana pancake batter to the pan, aiming for baby pancakes about 1 inch in diameter. Add as many pancakes as you feel comfortable managing at one time—I usually add 6 at a time.
  • Allow to cook in the butter for about 30 seconds until bubbles start to form in the pancake batter. Flip and cook another 30 seconds.
  • Repeat steps 5 & 6 until pancake batter is used up, continuously adding butter to keep your griddle greased. Enjoy warm with fresh fruit and syrup!
