How to Make Barefoot Contessa's Banana Sour Cream Pancakes
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. The butter is ready when it melts and begins to foam slightly.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
- Arrange 2-3 banana slices on top of each pancake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set.
- Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed. Wipe the pan with a paper towel between batches to prevent sticking.
- Serve immediately with sliced bananas, a pat of butter, and a generous drizzle of maple syrup.
- Keep warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven for up to 20 minutes while you finish cooking the remaining pancakes.
