Brainless Banana Pancakes

I love breakfast! I love to make pancakes and waffles from scratch. I received this recipe by email and decided to try it. John looked nervous, the kids excited, the result....as Syd used to say,"TOO-licious" Problem with the recipe, soy milk, we don't do soy milk here's the original recipe and here is my version. These pancakes are a little thicker since I mashed two bananas not one. I cooked them on lower heat and for a little longer than usual make sure your griddle is oiled, bananas like to stick. I also deleted the line that said so sweet and yummy doesn't even need syrup...she has definitely not met my kids and husband.

Brainless Banana Pancakes

1 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 banana, mashed
1 1/4 cups milk
1 tbsp sweetener or sugar
sliced fresh fruit (garnish)

1. In a large bowl, sift the flour and baking powder together.
2. In a small bowl, mash the banana with a fork and add 1/4 cup of the milk, mixing together until there are no lumps. Add the banana, sweetener, and remaining soy milk to the dry mix and stir together until "just mixed."
3. Portion out about 3/4 to 1 cup of batter onto a hot non-stick pan or a lightly oiled frying pan and cover with a lid. Let sit on medium heat until the center starts to bubble and become sturdy. Flip pancake over and cook other side until golden brown. Repeat process until all the batter is gone.
4. Garnish with fresh fruit and maple syrup.

Makes 3 servings. No really it does!
This recipe was a unanimous hit, we even had an extra kiddo around to test it on. Definitely a thumbs up.
