Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 1 Ripe banana
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0 Cooking spray or butter for greasing the pan

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until smooth and free of large lumps.

Step 3

Add the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the mashed banana. Whisk until the mixture is well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy pancakes. The batter may be slightly lumpy, and that’s okay.

Step 5

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or butter.

Step 6

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of the spoon to spread the batter into a circle if necessary.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set. Flip gently with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve the warm banana pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, sliced bananas, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
