3-ingredient banana pancakes

3-ingredient banana pancakes are a simple and delicious breakfast option that can be whipped up in no time. This straightforward recipe requires just a banana, an egg, and self-raising flour, making it a perfect choice for a quick and healthy meal.

Ingredients:

1 banana
120g
1 egg
50g
2 tbsp self-raising flour
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Peel the banana and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Crack the egg into the same bowl.
2. Mash the Banana:
- Use a fork or potato masher to thoroughly mash the banana until it forms a smooth puree.
3. Mix in the Egg:
- Whisk the egg into the mashed banana until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
4. Add the Flour:
- Gradually add the self-raising flour to the banana-egg mixture. Stir continuously to avoid any lumps. Mix until the batter is smooth and well combined.
5. Heat the Pan:
- Lightly grease a non-stick frying pan or griddle with a small amount of oil or butter and place it over medium heat.
6. Cook the Pancakes:
- Once the pan is hot, pour small amounts of batter onto the pan to form pancakes. You can make them as small or large as you prefer.
- Cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges set. Flip them carefully using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Serve:
- Remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- Serve the banana pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, honey, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Tips:

- Use a ripe banana for better sweetness and easier mashing.

- Ensure the batter is well-mixed to avoid lumps and achieve a smooth consistency.

- Cook the pancakes on medium heat to prevent burning and ensure an even cook.

- Use a non-stick pan or lightly grease the pan with cooking oil or butter to prevent the pancakes from sticking.

- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, or a dollop of yogurt.
