Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel the banana and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Crack the eggs and add them to the bowl with the banana.
2. Mash and Mix:
- Use a fork or potato masher to mash the banana until smooth.
- Add the eggs to the mashed banana and whisk together until well combined.
- Sprinkle the baking powder into the banana-egg mixture.
- Add the vanilla extract.
- Stir until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of cooking spray or a dab of oil.
- Once the pan is heated, pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan for each pancake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
- Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, honey, maple syrup, or yogurt.
Tips:
- For smoother batter, blend all the ingredients in a blender until well combined.
- Use a non-stick skillet or add a little oil or butter to the pan to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
- Cook the pancakes on medium-low heat to ensure they cook through without burning.
- Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake before flipping it to ensure even cooking.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra flavor.
