INGREDIENTS:
MILK - whole milk, 2% or any of the nut milk varieties work well in this!
BUTTER - I use salted butter, that I melt and let cool a little right before mixing
EGG - large eggs
VANILLA EXTRACT - almond extract is also yummy in this!
FLOUR - regular all-purpose flour
BROWN SUGAR - you can sub white sugar if that's what you have. The brown sugar pairs well with the bananas, though - so use it if you have it!
BAKING POWDER
SALT - kosher salt
BANANAS - I use 2 small
bananas - about 1 cup mashed.
OPTIONAL - 1/2 tsp cinnamon
added with the dry ingredients, extra sliced bananas and 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips for sprinkling.
MAKE THE PANCAKE BATTER
Mix the wet ingredients (egg, milk, melted butter, vanilla) in a small bowl.
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, salt) in another bowl.
Mash the bananas until broken up (but still chunky ish - we're not looking for pureed bananas).
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
Add the mashed banana mixture to the other ingredients.
Fold together until just combined.

COOK THE PANCAKESHeat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt a little butter (you don't have to, but I like the crispy edges).
Add the batter in 1/2 cup portions to the skillet.
Cook until bubbles appear on the pancakes and pop (the surface will look less "wet").
Flip and cook on the other for a minute or two longer until golden brown.
