Time 20m

Yield Makes twelve 4-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

1½ cups all purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled off
2 tablespoons sugar
2½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 small, over-ripe banana, peeled (the browner, the better)
2 large eggs
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons low fat milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Maple syrup
Sliced bananas
Confectioners' sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • In a small bowl, mash the banana with a fork until almost smooth. Whisk in the eggs, then add the milk and vanilla and whisk until well blended. Pour the banana mixture and the melted butter into the flour mixture. Fold the batter gently with a rubber spatula until just blended; do not over-mix. The batter will be thick and lumpy.
  • Set a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat until hot. Put a pad of butter and one tablespoon vegetable oil onto the griddle, and swirl it around. Drop the batter by ¼-cupfuls onto the griddle, spacing the pancakes about 2 inches apart. Cook until a few holes form on top of each pancake and the underside is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook until the bottom is golden brown and the top is puffed, 1 to 2 minutes more. Using the spatula, transfer the pancakes to a serving plate.
  • Wipe the griddle clean with paper towels, add more butter and oil, and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve the pancakes while still hot with maple syrup, sliced bananas and confectioners' sugar if desired.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The pancakes can be frozen for up to 3 months. After they are completely cooled, place a sheet of parchment or wax paper between each pancake and stack together. Wrap the stack of pancakes tightly in aluminum foil or place inside a heavy-duty freezer bag. To reheat, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and cover with foil. Bake in a 375°F oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until hot.

VEGAN BANANA PANCAKES



Vegan Banana Pancakes image

Ripe banana, a common replacement in vegan recipes, pulls double duty here as both an egg substitute and a delicious pop of flavor. In this case, the riper the banana the better! We recommend using unsalted vegan butter which lends a flavor reminiscent of traditional pancakes, but coconut oil also works in a pinch.

Time 30m

Yield 12 to 14 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
7 1/2 teaspoons vegan granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large very ripe banana, mashed (about 1/2 cup)
1 1/4 cups unsweetened plain almond milk, at room temperature
3 tablespoons unsalted vegan butter, such as Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Sticks, melted and cooled, plus more for brushing and serving
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
  • Whisk the mashed banana, almond milk, butter and vanilla in a medium bowl until combined. Whisk the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are a few lumps).
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with butter. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet for each pancake and cook until the bottom is golden brown and bubbles form on top, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. (If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium-low.) Flip and continue cooking until golden brown on the other side, 1 to 2 more minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, brushing the pan with more butter as needed. Serve with more butter and syrup.

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch

Time 15m

Yield Makes 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

350g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 very ripe bananas
2 medium eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups whole milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 ripe bananas, sliced

Steps:

  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together all your dry ingredients.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and add the sliced bananas. Gently stir until you stop seeing flour. Leave a few lumps for tender pancakes.
  • Head your pan to medium high.
  • Moisten a paper towel with vegetable oil and lightly wipe the bottom of the pan. This will keep the pancakes from sticking.
  • For each pancake, gently pour 1/2 cup of batter into the pan. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circle.
  • Bubbles will form in the batter. When they begin to pop, the pancakes are ready to be flipped. Turn over gently with the spatula and cook for about one minute on the flip side.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pancakes will be.
  • Mash the bananas well. This will help to ensure that they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.

Conclusion:

These brainless banana pancakes are a quick and easy breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are also a great way to use up ripe bananas.
