Ingredients
1 c. flour1 TBSP granulated sugar1 TBSP unsweetened cocoa powder2 tsp. baking powder1/4 tsp. salt1 large egg1 c. milk (1%)2 TBSP light butter, melted2 ripe bananas, mashed1 tsp. vanilla extract
Combine flour, sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, melted light butter, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract.
Stir flour mixture into banana mixture until just combined; batter will be slightly lumpy.
Heat a griddle or frying pan sprayed with cooking spray over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until pancakes start to bubble on top and develop a deep brown crust on both sides, flipping only once.
Serve hot off the griddle. (Makes 6 servings of 1/4 c. batter)
Top with more light butter, or to make a scrumptious dish, spread some creamy peanut butter over the pancakes and finish it off with a sprinkling of cinnamon. (Note: the nutrition info for this recipe does not include these toppings.)
If you want to substitute ingredients for a healthier dish, you can use whole wheat flour instead of white flour, sugar substitute instead of granulated sugar, egg beaters instead of the egg, and fat-free milk instead of 1% milk. You can also sprinkle some flax seeds into the batter for more fiber.
Yum!
