Cooking Instructions for Super Easy Banana Pancakes

Making Super Easy Banana Pancakes is an enjoyable and straightforward process that anyone can master. Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be savoring delicious pancakes in no time. Remember, the key is to blend all your ingredients smoothly for the best texture.
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients for Super Easy Banana Pancakes. You’ll need Almond Breeze, mashed bananas, eggs, honey, rolled oats, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and vanilla extract. It’s important to have everything ready to streamline your cooking process.
- In your high-powered blender, add the ½ cup of Almond Breeze, 1 ripe banana, 1 large egg, 2 large egg whites, 2 tablespoons of honey, 2 cups of rolled oats, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, ¾ teaspoon of kosher salt, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. This combination will create the base for your batter.
- Blend everything on high until completely smooth. You’ll want to ensure there are no lumps and that the mixture is well combined. This is how you achieve that fluffy pancake texture.
- Next, heat a large griddle or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray the surface with non-stick spray to prevent sticking. It’s essential to get the skillet hot enough so that the pancakes cook evenly.
- Once the skillet is ready, use a â…“ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter and pour it onto the skillet in a circle. Make sure to leave enough space between each pancake, as they will spread slightly while cooking.
- Cook the pancakes for about 2 to 3 minutes on the first side. You’ll know they’re ready to flip when you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set. This is a good indicator that they’re golden brown underneath.
- Gently flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on the second side. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn; they should turn a lovely golden color.
- Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a warm plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter. You can keep the first batch warm in the oven set to a low temperature.
- Now it’s time for the best part – toppings! Serve your Super Easy Banana Pancakes with sliced bananas, maple syrup, mini chocolate chips, coconut flakes, or whatever else your heart desires. Enjoy!
Things Worth Knowing
- Watch for bubbles: When the pancakes start to bubble, it’s a sign they’re ready to flip. This is crucial to ensure they cook evenly.
- Don’t overcrowd: Make sure not to overcrowd the skillet. It allows each pancake to cook properly without steaming.
- Adjust heat as needed: If the pancakes are browning too quickly, lower the heat to ensure they cook through without burning.
- Serve immediately: For the best experience, serve the pancakes right after cooking. They taste best when warm!
