Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the griddle: Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Combine wet ingredients: Add the milk, egg, mashed bananas, and melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth and evenly blended.
- Pour batter: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the preheated griddle or skillet for each pancake, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.
- Cook pancakes: Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the pancakes from the griddle and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, sliced bananas, or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy; some lumps are okay.
- If the batter is too thick, add a splash of milk to reach desired consistency.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while finishing the rest of the batch.
- You can substitute all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour to make this recipe gluten-free.
