This morning I was in the mood for some pancakes.
With just a few simple ingredients, let's whip up a stack of fluffy goodness.
Ingredients:
350g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 very ripe bananas
2 medium eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
250ml whole milk
2 just ripe bananas, sliced
Maple syrup (optional)
Butter, for frying
STEP 1
Sieve the flour, baking powder and a generous pinch of salt into a large bowl. In a separate mixing bowl, mash the very ripe bananas with a fork until smooth, then whisk in the eggs, vanilla extract and milk. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, tip in the wet ingredients and swiftly whisk together to create a smooth, silky batter.
STEP 2
Heat a little knob of butter in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat. Add 2-3 tbsp of the batter to the pan and cook for several minutes, or until small bubbles start appearing on the surface. Flip the pancake over and cook for 1-2 mins on the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the pancakes warm in a low oven.
STEP 3
Stack the pancakes on plates and top with the banana slices, a glug of sticky maple syrup and a handful of pecan nuts, if you like.
These pancakes are a surefire way to start your day on the right foot.

Fluffy, flavorful, and oh-so-satisfying, they're the perfect breakfast treat. The sweet aroma fills the kitchen as they sizzle on the griddle, and topping them with maple syrup and fresh fruit is pure bliss. Breakfast just got a whole lot better!
