- 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
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.
- 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.
