3-Ingredient Banana Pancakes Recipe - Quick & Easy

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (Use very ripe bananas for best flavor.)
  • 2 large eggs (Room temperature eggs work best.)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (Optional for fluffiness.)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas and eggs. Mix until smooth.

    Make sure the bananas are well mashed to avoid lumps.
  2. Add Baking Powder

    If using, stir in the baking powder for extra fluffiness.

    This step is optional but recommended for lighter pancakes.
  3. Heat the Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.

    Test the heat by dropping a small amount of batter; it should sizzle.
  4. Cook the Pancakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface.

    Do not flip too early; wait for edges to firm up.
  5. Flip and Finish

    Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

    Keep the heat consistent to avoid burning.
