Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1-2 ripe bananas, mashed
- Butter or oil for the pan
Steps to Pancake Perfection
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Trust me; your future pancake self will thank you!
- Combine the wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter. Then fold in those lovely mashed bananas—your kitchen will start smelling delightful!
- Bring it all together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. A few lumps are totally okay! We’re making pancakes here, not muffins.
- Heat the pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil to grease the pan.
- Cook those pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve and savor: Stack those pancakes high and serve with your favorite toppings—maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of nuts. You can even do a pancake tower if you’re feeling fancy!
Cooking Tips
Here are a few tips to elevate your pancake game even more:
- For extra flavor, add a dash of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract to the batter. It’s like a warm hug for your tastebuds!
- If your pancake batter seems too thick, don’t be shy to add a splash of milk to thin it out. Pancakes should flow like a fabulous Instagram story!
- Keep your pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while you cook the rest. That way, everyone can enjoy them hot off the griddle!
Personal Anecdote
You know, these brown sugar banana pancakes have a special place in my heart. I stumbled upon this recipe during one of those weeks when my kids were convinced they could only eat cereal. Naturally, I decided to sneak in some bananas (that they swore they hated) and some brown sugar to sweeten the deal. To my surprise, they devoured them! Now, they’re a staple on Saturday mornings. Moments like these remind me why I love being in the kitchen—creating memories as sweet as the pancakes themselves!
Can I substitute the milk in this recipe?
Absolutely! You can use almond milk, oat milk, or even coconut milk for a dairy-free option. The pancakes will still be delicious—trust me!
How can I store leftovers?
If you have any leftovers (which, let’s be honest, is rare), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them! Just stack them with parchment paper in between and store in a bag. Pop them in the toaster for a quick breakfast on those busy mornings.
Can I double the recipe?
<pYou bet! Just double all the ingredients, and you’ll have enough pancakes to feed a small army—or at least your hungry family. Just remember to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
So there you have it! Brown sugar banana pancakes that are not only quick and easy but also irresistibly delicious.
