Ingredients for Banana Pancake
- Self Raising Flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ cup milk (or coconut milk)
- Honey (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2-3 medium bananas)
How to Make Banana Pancake
- In a large bowl, sift together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup mashed ripe bananas, 1 large egg, ½ cup milk (or coconut milk for a tropical twist!), 2 tablespoons melted butter, 2 tablespoons sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the well, incorporating the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
- Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
- 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.
- Serve immediately, topped with sliced bananas, a drizzle of honey, fresh fruit (like mangoes or papaya!), a squeeze of lime, or a sprinkle of sugar. Enjoy your taste of Papua New Guinea!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
