Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, almond butter, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake; cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Notes

Tip: For extra sweetness, add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before cooking!

For the fluffiest pancakes, make sure not to overmix the batter; a few lumps are perfectly fine. You can also substitute almond butter with peanut butter or any nut butter of your choice for a different flavor.

To store leftovers, place pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or toaster for a quick breakfast!
