Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until evenly combined.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat 1 large egg with 3/4 cup milk and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; batter will be slightly lumpy.
  4. Step 4: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 2 tablespoons of batter per mini pancake and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
  5. Step 5: Flip each mini pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
  6. Step 6: Spread 1 teaspoon peanut or almond butter onto one mini pancake, top with 3-4 thin banana slices, and sandwich with another mini pancake.
  7. Step 7: Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven for up to 15 minutes.
