Banana Pancakes
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Instructions:
- In a bowl, start by peeling and mashing the two ripe bananas until no large chunks remain.
- Crack four large eggs into the bowl and whisk them together with the mashed bananas until well combined.
- Stir in two tablespoons of all-purpose flour to the banana and egg mixture. This step is optional, but it helps create a more traditional pancake texture. If you prefer, you can leave the flour out for gluten-free pancakes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, drop 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
- Cook until the edges look set and bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- Serve the banana pancakes warm. You can add optional toppings like a drizzle of maple syrup, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts. Enjoy this healthy and satisfying campfire breakfast!
