American Style Banana Pancakes

The weekend certainly calls for a breakfast that's that little bit special. I don't know about you, but come Saturday, I've had a serious bellyful of porridge. I usually turn to eggs or fresh fruit smoothies but this weekend I decided to go all out and make American style banana pancakes. They're super easy to make - you can even prepare them the evening before and leave the mix chilling in the fridge overnight. For me there's nothing better than sitting around enjoying a delicious breakfast together on a lazy Sunday morning.


Ingredients 

260ml Milk
2 Large Eggs
4 tbsp Butter (melted)
270g Plain Flour
2 tsp Baking Powder
4 tbsp Caster Sugar
2 bananas (sliced)

TO SERVE...
Fresh Berry Compote
Pecan Nuts
Natural Greek Yogurt
Maple Syrup

------------------------------------------------------------

Method

1) Using your electric mixer, whisk the eggs, melted butter and milk until combined. 
2) Sieve the baking powder into the mixing bowl, add the flour and the sugar and whisk again until combined. Allow the mixture to sit for at least 15 minutes before making the pancakes.
3) To cook the pancakes, heat your pan with half a teaspoon of butter and coconut oil. Put three ladelfuls of the mix into the pan to form three separate pancakes and place the sliced banana on top like so...


Once ready, flip to ensure that both sides are cooked
 - they should be golden brown in colour.


Enjoy as you wish. I like to serve a portion of three pancakes with a dollop of natural greek yogurt, a spoon of mixed berry compote, crushed pecan nuts and a drizzle of maple syrup on top - yum!
