Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • Additional butter for cooking
  • Maple syrup and sliced bananas for serving

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the mashed banana, peanut butter, milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if the batter is a little lumpy.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small pat of butter.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the top, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  7. Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup and sliced bananas. Enjoy!
