Ingredients

Units Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 medium)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Additional:

  • butter or oil for the skillet

Instructions

  1. Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine mashed bananas, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.

  3. Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix—the batter will be slightly lumpy.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve: Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with butter, syrup, sliced bananas, or chopped nuts.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add mini chocolate chips or toasted pecans to the batter.
  • These pancakes freeze well—just reheat in a toaster or microwave.
