Description

This Easy Banana Pancake Recipe is a delicious and simple way to start your day with fluffy, flavorful pancakes made from ripe bananas and classic ingredients. Perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch, these pancakes are tender, slightly sweet, and infused with a hint of cinnamon and vanilla.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 ½ large ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 large egg
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp extra-light oil

For Cooking

  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, divided

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir until everything is thoroughly combined and there are no clumps.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix granulated sugar, mashed bananas, egg, whole milk, vanilla extract, and extra-light oil. Stir gently to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
  3. Fold Batter: Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Be careful not to overmix to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  4. Heat Skillet and Melt Butter: Place a large skillet over medium heat and melt 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter.
  5. Cook Pancakes: Using a ¼ cup measuring scoop, pour batter into the skillet, leaving space between each pancake. Cook on medium heat until bubbles form on the surface, indicating the pancake is ready to flip. Flip quickly and cook until golden and cooked through.
  6. Finish Remaining Batter: After removing cooked pancakes from the skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter.
  7. Serve: Top pancakes with your preferred toppings and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious banana pancakes!

Notes

  • Keep skillet clean: Butter can burn quickly due to its low smoke point. Wipe down your skillet between batches to prevent burning and sticking.
  • Store leftovers: Keep leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
