How to Make Banana Nut Pancakes

  1. Preheat your non-stick skillet over medium heat while preparing the batter.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 2 ripe bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  3. Add 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the mashed bananas. Gently whisk to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy), and 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
  7. Lightly spray the preheated skillet with cooking spray.
  8. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.
  9. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges look set.
  10. Serve immediately with butter, syrup, your favorite jam, extra sliced bananas and/or chopped nuts.
  11. Optional: Freeze cooked pancakes for a quick breakfast on the go. Reheat in a toaster or microwave.
