A list of Ingredients for Banana Pancakes:
- 2 very ripe bananas (180 g)
- 180 g plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons (30 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 130 g all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Oil for cooking
Instructions:
- Begin by mashing the bananas using a fork in a large bowl.
- Add the plain yogurt and melted butter to the bowl, then stir until well combined.
- Crack in the large egg, add the vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until all ingredients are mixed thoroughly.
- Next, add the all-purpose flour to the bowl, then evenly sprinkle the baking powder on top. Stir until just combined, being careful not to over-mix. It’s okay if there are a few little lumps in the batter. The consistency should be rather thick.
- Heat a large frying pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with oil.
- Once the pan is hot, add approximately 3 tablespoons of the batter for each pancake to the pan. Use a spoon to spread the thick batter into rounds – they will not spread any further on their own.
- Allow the pancakes to cook until they slightly puff up and you see a few bubbles forming on the surface. Use a spatula to check from time to time and make sure the pancakes do not brown too much on the bottom.
- Once ready, carefully flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on both sides.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding a little oil to the pan between batches to prevent sticking.
And….Enjoy!
