Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 large bananas
- 4 large eggs
Finishing/Optional Ingredient:
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 milliliters) baking powder (optional)
Instructions
- Peel ripe bananas and crack eggs into a high-powered blender. Add baking powder to enhance the pancake’s rise and texture.
- Pulse the mixture until completely smooth and uniform, ensuring no banana chunks remain visible.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium temperature, lightly coating with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Pour heaped spoonfuls of batter onto the hot surface, creating circular pancake shapes.
- Cover the pan with a lid to trap steam and help the pancake cook evenly for approximately 60-90 seconds.
- Check the pancake’s underside for golden-brown coloration; when edges appear set and bubbles form, carefully flip with a spatula.
- Cook the reverse side for an additional 45-60 seconds until achieving a consistent golden hue.
- Repeat the cooking process with remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Transfer completed pancakes to serving plates and garnish with preferred toppings like fresh fruits, maple syrup, or honey.
- Serve immediately while pancakes remain warm and fluffy for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Select ripe, spotty bananas for maximum natural sweetness and smoother texture in your pancakes.
- Use a high-powered blender to ensure the batter is completely smooth without banana chunks for consistent cooking.
- Keep pancake size small and uniform to help with easier flipping and more even cooking throughout.
- For gluten-free diets, this recipe is naturally gluten-free; for added protein, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts or adding a scoop of protein powder to the batter.
