Pancakes à la Banane

Pancakes à la Banane are fluffy and naturally sweetened vegan pancakes that highlight the rich flavor of ripe bananas. This delightful French breakfast dish is quick to prepare and perfect for a cozy morning.

Ingredients

• ripe banana - 1 medium
• all-purpose flour - 150 grams
• plant-based milk - 200 ml
• baking powder - 10 grams
• cinnamon - 1 teaspoon
• vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• maple syrup - 2 tablespoons
• salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• coconut oil - for frying

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
2. Add the plant-based milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mashed banana, and mix until well combined.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are fine.
5. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil.
6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
7. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the pan as needed.
8. Serve warm with additional maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite vegan toppings.
