Brown Sugar Banana Pancakes are a warm, comforting breakfast treat that combines ripe bananas with rich brown sugar for a fluffy, tender pancake with a hint of natural sweetness.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or regular milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, mix the mashed banana, buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Some lumps are fine to keep pancakes fluffy.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
  6. Serve warm with maple syrup, extra sliced bananas, or your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg enhances the flavor.
  • For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans add crunch.
  • To make vegan, use a flax egg and plant-based milk and butter alternatives.
  • Chocolate chips can be mixed in for extra sweetness.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat pancakes in a toaster or skillet to keep them fluffy.
  • Freezing cooked pancakes is possible for up to 2 months.
