Ingredients
- 1/2 ripe banana
- 1 fresh egg
- 50g whole wheat flour
- 1g baking powder (approx. 1/4 tsp)
- 60g milk (approx. 4 tbsp)
- A little rice bran oil or vegetable oil (for greasing the pan)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare half a ripe banana. Place it in a bowl and mash it thoroughly with a fork until there are no lumps. The smoother the banana is mashed, the sweeter and softer the pancakes will be.
Step 2
Carefully crack one clean egg into the bowl with the mashed banana.
Step 3
Add the measured 50g of whole wheat flour and 1g of baking powder. Sifting these ingredients will help create a smoother batter with fewer lumps.
Step 4
Pour in the 60g of milk. Gently whisk everything together until just combined and no dry flour is visible. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tougher pancakes. Aim for a smooth, pourable batter.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick pan over low heat. Lightly grease the pan by wiping it with a paper towel dipped in rice bran oil. Keeping the heat low is crucial to prevent the pancakes from burning. Spoon or pour your desired amount of batter onto the pan to form small pancakes.
Step 6
Cook on low to medium-low heat. When small bubbles start to appear on the surface of the pancakes, carefully flip them with a spatula. Cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Your delicious whole wheat banana pancakes are ready!
Step 7
These freshly made pancakes are naturally sweet and delicious on their own, thanks to the banana. However, you can enhance the meal by serving them with fresh fruits, creamy cottage cheese, or a healthy baby-friendly jam, depending on your baby’s preferences. Delight your little one with these fluffy and tender pancakes!
