Banana Pancake Bites
Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1-1/4 cups milk
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 firm bananas sliced 1/2-inch thick
For topping, optional:
- Maple syrup or powdered sugar
- Berries such as blueberries, raspberries, strawberries
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
Stir in milk, oil, egg and vanilla until well combined. Let batter rest for 10 minutes.
Grease a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Set to medium-low heat.
Dip banana slices in pancake batter. Using a fork, lift out one slice at a time. Gently shake excess batter off each slice. Place directly onto the hot skillet. Continue with remaining slices, careful not to overcrowd your pan. Allow bananas to cook for 2-3 minutes on each side.
Transfer to an oven-safe plate. Keep warm in a 250-degree oven, until ready to serve.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired. Maple syrup and berries are also delicious with these pancake bites.
Serve warm and enjoy!
