Fruits

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 4 medium strawberries, washed and tops cut off

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

For Cooking

  • Oil or butter for skillet

Instructions

  1. Prepare Fruits: In a mixing bowl, add the ripe banana and washed strawberries with tops removed.
  2. Mash Fruits: Mash the banana and strawberries together until the mixture is smooth-ish with some small lumps allowed.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed fruit and stir until well combined.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Gently mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined; some lumps are okay to keep the batter tender.
  5. Preheat Skillet: Heat a skillet on medium-low and lightly coat it with oil or butter to prevent sticking.

  7. Flip and Cook: Carefully flip each pancake and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, optionally with additional fruit, syrup, or your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
