Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 large (ripe) Banana
- 1 unit Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or additional butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In another medium-sized bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until smooth. Whisk in the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few small lumps are okay, but do not overmix.
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with vegetable oil or butter.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm while repeating with the remaining batter.
Serve the blueberry banana pancakes warm, with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, a pat of butter, extra blueberries, or sliced bananas.
