Equipment

Ingredients

1½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 ripe bananas mashed
2 eggs
1 cup milk any kind
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
More butter or oil for greasing pan

Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
In another medium bowl, stir mashed bananas, eggs, milk, vanilla, and melted butter.
Add flour mixture to banana mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, otherwise your pancakes will be dense.
In a large skillet or griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour batter by ¼ cupful into skillet and cook until edges are set and bubbles form in the center of pancakes, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned, about 1 minute. Repeat process with rest of butter and pancakes.
Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired.

Notes

Want round, extra thick and fluffy pancakes? Use a pancake ring! Pour batter right into the ring, and when ready to flip, remove the ring. It will keep the pancakes round and thick.
