Banana and Brown Sugar Topped Pancakes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • Additional brown sugar for topping
  • Maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, and melted butter. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  3. Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  5. While the pancakes are cooking, heat a separate pan over medium heat. Add the sliced bananas and a sprinkle of brown sugar. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the bananas are caramelized.
  6. Stack the pancakes on a plate, top with the caramelized bananas, and sprinkle additional brown sugar to taste. Serve with maple syrup if desired.
