These Brown Sugar Banana Pancakes are a delightful twist on your classic pancake breakfast. The ripe bananas bring natural sweetness and moisture, while the brown sugar adds a rich caramel-like flavor that complements the fluffy texture perfectly. Topped with warm maple syrup and more fresh banana slices, these pancakes make for a comforting and satisfying breakfast treat.
- Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- Maple syrup, for serving
- Sliced banana and additional brown sugar, for garnish
Directions:
- Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Stir in the mashed bananas.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown on both sides.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup and garnish with sliced bananas and a sprinkle of brown sugar.
