Ingredients

Scale

Banana Pancakes Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup plant-based milk (such as almond, oat, or soy)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon plant-based butter (for cooking)

Optional Variations

  • Dark chocolate chips (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom (natural)
  • Gluten-free flour blend (replace all-purpose flour)
  • Chopped walnuts or pecans (to taste)
  • Fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Banana Mixture: Begin by mashing the ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth but still slightly chunky to retain texture and moisture for the pancakes.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and brown sugar to evenly distribute the rising agent and sweetness.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the plant-based milk, vanilla extract (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to the banana mixture. Then fold in the dry ingredients gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to maintain fluffiness.
  4. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and melt a small amount of plant-based butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  5. Serve Warm: Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup (natural), or toasted nuts.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Do not overmix the batter; a few lumps help create lighter pancakes.
  • Cook over medium heat to avoid burning the exterior and undercooking the interior.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to activate the baking powder fully.
  • Use a non-stick pan or griddle to prevent sticking and achieve a golden crust.
