Does anyone else start singing the Jack Johnson song when you see these words? Just me? These easy pancakes were one of my oldest’s favorites when he was smaller. Now that he’s a teenager (gracious), he still loves them just as much.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Grease a pan with butter, and heat on medium.
- In a mixing bowl, mash bananas with a fork.
- Stir in eggs, flour, and baking powder until just mixed.
- Pour ¼ cup batter into pan. Press and shape into a circle (batter will be thick). Cook until brown, about 2 minutes. Flip to brown on the other side, about 1 minute.
- Serve with sliced bananas, maple syrup, or powdered sugar for a sweet breakfast.
