Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 1 large Ripe banana (mashed)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil (melted) or vegetable oil
• 0 Cooking spray or butter (for the skillet)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In a separate large bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the buttermilk, egg, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil. Whisk until fully combined.

Step 3

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding the mixture gently with a spatula. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix. The batter will be slightly thick.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 5

Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Spread slightly if needed to shape them.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
