Drizzled with maple syrup or honey for an extra touch of decadence, this dish is perfect for both busy weekdays and leisurely weekends. Quick and easy to prepare, it uses simple pantry ingredients like ripe bananas, flour, and milk to whip up pancake perfection in just 25 minutes. Packed with flavor and a boost of protein from the nut butter, this recipe is ideal for families, kids, or anyone craving a satisfying start to the day.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In another bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking oil or butter.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly to form a round shape.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and let them cool slightly.
To assemble the sandwich, spread a generous layer of nut butter on one pancake. Add a layer of banana slices on top.
Place a second pancake on top to sandwich the banana slices and nut butter.
Drizzle maple syrup or honey over the sandwich, if desired, and serve warm.
