Fluffy Banana Pancakes

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Quick Meals
These aren't thin crepes, but their puffy American-style cousins, where banana isn't just a flavor but part of the structure. The fruit's natural sugars caramelize during baking, and baking powder ensures airy height. A perfect way to rescue overripe, browning bananas when they are sweetest.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mash bananas completely with a fork.

Tip: The browner the peel, the sweeter the batter, requiring less sugar.
2 ✓

Mix banana puree with egg, oil, and milk until uniform.

Tip: Emulsion of wet ingredients forms the base.
3 ✓

Sift in flour, baking powder, and salt; fold just until flour disappears.

Tip: Do not overmix! Overmixing strengthens gluten, making pancakes tough.
4 ✓

Cook small rounds in a medium-hot, oiled skillet. Flip when bubbles appear on top and pop.

Tip: Bubbles indicate heat has penetrated and gas has formed. Perfect timing.

Recipe FAQ

Why is the center raw?
Pan was too hot. Thick batter needs time to cook through before the bottom burns. Cook on medium heat!
