1️⃣ Make the Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using). In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add in the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
2️⃣ Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy and thick. Let it rest for 5 minutes while the griddle heats.
3️⃣ Cook the Pancakes:
Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for about 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
4️⃣ Serve Warm:
Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve immediately with butter, syrup, sliced bananas, or chopped nuts.
Serving Tip:
For an extra treat, add mini chocolate chips or chopped walnuts into the batter before cooking. These pancakes also freeze well—just store in a zip-top bag and reheat in the toaster or microwave.
