Equipment

  • Griddle
  • saucepan
  • blending bowls

Ingredients
  

For the pancakes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or complete wheat flour for a more fit choice)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 1 huge egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the bananas foster topping:

  • 2 massive bananas, sliced
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp floor cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp rum (or rum extract for a non-alcoholic model)
  • ¼ cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the pancake batter: In a bowl, whisk collectively the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Combine the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla in a separate bowl. Gradually add the moist ingredients to the dry elements, blending till mixed.
  • Cook the pancakes: Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium warmth. Grease lightly with butter or cooking spray. Pour 1/four cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for two to three minutes or till bubbles form at the surface, then flip and prepare dinner for 1-2 mins until golden brown.
  • Make the bananas foster topping: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium warmness. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the combination is bubbly. Add the banana slices and prepare dinner for 1-2 mins until the bananas are caramelized. Carefully stir within the rum (or rum extract) and prepare dinner for 30 seconds. Stir inside the heavy cream and take away from heat.
  • Assemble the pancakes: Stack the pancakes on a plate and pour the banana foster sauce over the top. Serve straight away, optionally, with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
