This easy recipe whips up a batch of delicious whole-wheat banana pancakes perfect for a lazy Saturday morning (or any morning, really!) breakfast. Make a double batch to keep in the freezer for busy weekday mornings.
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
Make a well (hole) in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the honey, eggs, milk, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Whisk together thoroughly, but do not overmix.
Gently fold the mashed bananas into the batter with a spatula.
Heat a griddle or sauté pan over medium-high heat. Swirl enough butter around the pan until it is well coated. Add pancake batter using a soup ladle.
When the pancakes have begun to turn golden brown on the bottom, flip them over to cook the other side.
Serve with warm maple syrup and a side of fruit (like an apple, fresh blueberries, or a sliced banana if you just can't get enough). And don't forget to freeze the leftovers for another day!
Notes
If you're up for experimenting with flavor, try adding a little pure vanilla extract to the wet ingredients.For an extra special treat, you could top these with peanut butter or even some chocolate chips.Nutrition Facts
