Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • A pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 12 tablespoons natural sweetener (maple syrup, agave, or coconut sugar), optional

For Cooking

  • Plant-based butter (natural), for cooking

Optional Add-ins and Variations

  • Dairy-free chocolate chips
  • Chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans
  • Blueberries or raspberries
  • Warm spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom
  • Natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bananas: Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until mostly smooth with a few small lumps remaining to maintain texture.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: Add the plant-based milk, natural vanilla extract (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and chosen natural sweetener to the mashed bananas. Stir gently until combined into a smooth liquid base.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt evenly to ensure the pancakes rise and cook uniformly.
  4. Unite Wet and Dry Mixtures: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined and the batter is slightly lumpy. Do not overmix to keep the pancakes tender.
  5. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and coat with a small amount of plant-based butter (natural). Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on top and edges set. Flip and cook an additional 2 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the best sweetness and moisture.
  • Stir batter just enough to combine to avoid tough pancakes.
  • Cook pancakes on medium heat to avoid burning and ensure they cook through.
  • Optional: Let batter rest for 5 minutes to improve texture before cooking.
  • Customize toppings with fresh fruit, plant-based syrup, or nut butters to enhance flavor.
