Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large ripe bananas mashed

Instructions

  • In a separate bowl, mix together the egg, milk, oil, vanilla, and mashed banana.
  • Sift the dry ingredients into the wet and stir to combine. The batter will be lumpy.
  • Heat a lightly oiled pan over high heat. Pour ¼ cup of the batter into the hot pan and cook for about 2 minutes or until it starts to bubble on top and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Mash bananas thoroughly for even distribution.
  • Don’t overmix the batter — lumps are okay.
  • Cook over medium heat to prevent burning before the center sets.
  • Keep finished pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking batches.
