Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp brown sugar, packed
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 large ripe banana, mashed
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Butter or oil, for cooking
- Optional: extra sliced bananas and syrup for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mash the Banana: In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Set aside.
- Make the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Add the mashed banana and stir to combine.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—lumps are okay!
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve: Serve your pancakes warm with extra sliced bananas and maple syrup, if desired.
Notes
- Banana Ripeness: The riper the banana, the sweeter and more flavorful your pancakes will be!
- Make it Dairy-Free: Use a dairy-free milk (like almond milk) and replace buttermilk with a non-dairy version or a homemade dairy-free buttermilk.
- For Extra Flavor: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients for a warm spice flavor.
