Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Ingredients
  

Pancake Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Bananas Foster Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large bananas sliced
  • 1 tablespoon rum optional
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  • In another bowl, combine the milk, beaten egg, and melted butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Set aside.
  • To make the Bananas Foster sauce, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon, cooking until bubbly.
  • Add the sliced bananas and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the rum (if using) and heavy cream, then remove from heat.
  • Serve the pancakes topped with the warm Bananas Foster sauce. Enjoy!

Notes

For an extra indulgent treat, serve these pancakes with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Leftover sauce can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated before serving.
