Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 medium Ripe banana
- 200 milliliters Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or melted butter
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or oil for frying
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the egg and whisk together until well combined.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract to the banana mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and add the olive oil or melted butter. Stir the mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter may be a bit lumpy, which is okay.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or oil.
Pour about 2 tablespoons of pancake batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a warm plate while you repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings, such as fresh berries, sugar-free syrup, or plain yogurt.
