Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend for gluten-free option)
  • 1 cup plant-based milk (such as almond, oat, or soy milk)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon natural sweetener (maple syrup or agave syrup natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking oil or plant-based butter for frying

Instructions

  1. Mash the Bananas: Start with the ripe bananas, mashing them until smooth but still a bit chunky to give texture. The ripeness is key for natural sweetness and moisture.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the mashed bananas, plant-based milk, natural sweetener, vanilla extract (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) if using. Stir to blend all wet ingredients evenly.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour (or gluten-free blend), baking powder, natural gelling agent, and salt. This ensures the rising agents distribute evenly for fluffy consistency.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay to keep the pancakes tender.
  5. Cook to Golden Perfection: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or plant-based butter. Pour batter in small rounds and cook 2-3 minutes per side until bubbles form and edges look set, then flip and cook until golden.
  6. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Stack your freshly made Banana Pancakes high on a plate, add your favorite toppings, and dive into your cozy breakfast!

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough pancakes.
  • Cook pancakes at medium heat to prevent burning while ensuring thorough cooking.
  • Let batter rest for 5 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent and improve fluffiness.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm by placing them in a low-temperature oven until serving.
