Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large ripe banana, mashed
- 3/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or neutral oil (plus extra for cooking)
Directions:
- Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mash the banana and mix it with the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
- Combine Ingredients: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; a few lumps are fine. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender pancakes.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve: Transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
