# How to Make It:
01 -
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly blended.
02 -
In a larger bowl, beat the mashed banana and egg until smooth, then whisk in the milk until thoroughly combined.
03 -
Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; some lumps in the batter help achieve fluffiness.
04 -
Set a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat the surface with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
05 -
Using a 80-millilitre measuring cup, pour three to four rounds of batter onto the skillet. Cook for two to three minutes, until pancakes puff up and are golden underneath.
06 -
Carefully turn the pancakes and cook for an additional one to two minutes until well risen and cooked through.
07 -
Transfer warm pancakes to plates, finishing with sliced fresh banana and maple syrup as desired.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Pancakes freeze well; cool completely before wrapping and storing in the freezer for later use.
02 -
Enhance with additional toppings such as berries, nut butter, or a sprinkle of seeds.
