Fluffy Banana Pancakes
Fluffy Banana Pancakes are a sweet and comforting breakfast favorite that combines ripe bananas with a light, fluffy pancake batter. These pancakes are naturally sweetened with banana and a touch of honey, making them a healthier alternative to traditional pancakes without sacrificing flavor. They’re perfect for a cozy weekend brunch, but quick enough to whip up on a weekday morning. The bananas keep the pancakes moist and tender, while cinnamon and vanilla add warmth and depth. Serve them with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of nuts for a wholesome and satisfying breakfast that the whole family will love.
Ingredients
Method
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, mash the banana until smooth. Stir in milk, egg, vanilla, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix – the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
- Serve warm with maple syrup, sliced bananas, or your favorite toppings.
