Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 medium Ripe bananas
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 Egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans
• 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and sugar.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the bananas and whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with butter or oil.

Step 6

Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 9

Serve the banana nut pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, sliced bananas, or an extra sprinkle of nuts.
